"My awareness of my constant judging made me see the growth that hides behind the opposite: questioning our assumptions."
So true! I feel like as we get older we have to kind of exposure therapy ourselves with things we didn't like in the past or things we assume we don't like. We're always evolving, so makes sense that our taste in regard to anything can and will.
Genial!! Como expresas y cuentas una experiencia cotidiana de una manera especial, con ingenio y ese toque de humor.... y dejándonos en el análisis de algo tan común ... felicitaciones 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
This is my favorite kind of storytelling Catalina!
First of all, the story itself is beautifully told.
"Worms of any kind are part of my disastrous cup of horrors, protagonists of my childhood nightmares, part of my fatal parade of chills, and I had residue of that on my lips. Desperate to shift the narrative, I take a sip of my drink and bite into a tuna tostada, trying to add new flavors to my mouth."
Second, you create a bridge to a thoughtful reflection that is relevant to being human.
"My awareness of my constant judging made me see the growth that hides behind the opposite: questioning our assumptions. That practice makes us more conscious of our beliefs, biases, and preconceived notions. That heightened awareness allows us to reevaluate our perspectives and consider alternative viewpoints."
Third, you share the call to action you're implementing based on your reflection.
"In the world of flavors, as in life, unexpected and sometimes squirmy ingredients contribute to the most memorable experiences. Reflecting on this, I've recognized that, rather than succumbing to judgmental aversion, I'm working on actively cultivating an appreciation for the pleasure of unpredictability. I'm convinced there's something truly memorable in embracing the unexpected."
Thanks for this example of inspirational storytelling! I'm in need of more of these to share with leaders and educators who want to become better storytellers.
