I know this is a late post but I did not know exactly what the assignment wanted and did not have access to my laptop till today but now that both problems are fixed I would love to talk about an "A-HA" moment I had.
Tuesday I brought my girlfriend to class because I feel it would be good for her to come to as many as possible to understand what I am saying, changing, and trying to do. It was in that class we had the amazing note-card lesson where everyone wrote down a secret. I was intrigued during it to know who's secret each one was.
When my girlfriends came up I knew exactly which one it was because we previously have taken it out of the hidden window and put it into the open window to try and overcome it. The problem here was she did not know which note card was mine and wanted to know what I wrote, at first I struggled with even considering telling her for all the reasons we mentioned in class. I thought of those without even realizing that I was nervous of telling her because of the vulnerability in confessing a secret. Then I thought back to Eric Young's story he shared with the class and I thought if he can share something like that who am I not to be able to share something so little compared to what he did.
So I opened up to my girlfriend and told her not only one secret but a few that I have had and just have not told anyone due to those reasons we listed in class. Wow this was an "A-HA" moment our relationship grew so much we actually sat there for at least 3 hours just going topic to topic secret to secret from everything like most embarrassing moments we never told anyone to biggest fears and regrets and we were able to really understand each other better, understand why we do some of the little things we do or act the way we act.
I am grateful for that chance that I had and I hope to continue talking to each other so neither of us have a hidden box anymore or a very very small one and everything is in the open section.
