My Life

It also feels really good to be needed. I like when I can go out some where and some ones hurt or crying they would come to me to ask for advice or just someone to listen to, because they know I am a caring person.
             I think these needs are in my personality already so it's not like it's something I need to strive for. God gave me good listening skills, commonsense and the ability to feel empathy. I think as a counselor you need a lot of empathy. When you put yourself in someone else's shoes you can understand were they are coming from and help them better. .
             I have gotten a lot of these qualities for counselor through my own life experiences. I was always better much a good kid, but for some reason, thank the lord; I have never had any real big problems in my family. It always seems to be my friends having them. So for example when my best friends parents got divorced, I was the one listening and be their. As I look back on it now, I remember doing that a lot of times. I would always be their for them. .
             .
             I have had given many of my friends help with their problems, a lot have been about the divorce friends. I have 6 close friends 5 of them are split up. I so I was always helping always ready to listen and give some good advice. Another life experience that has helped me to become the caring person would be the town nest to me New Britain.
             It is filled with bums, drug addicts and murders. My father works in the center town as a dentist. So I saw all these terrible things going on. I always wanted to help but I didn't know how. Then I started college and really wanted to help being a counselor. I thought about being a cop, but I wanted to get to the root of the problem. I would love to work with kids with drug problems, stop it before it gets to far in their lives were it is too late.
             To have values such as I do you need to have certain traits as I do, you also need .
             to have good outlets of your own problems.
