Youth Development Discussion 

During their Youth Development course, students' discussed their favorite quotes and reflected on what resonates with them throughout life, and specifically, throughout this program. The fruitful conversation highlighted the significance of reflection, goal setting, and service. It also provided our cohort an opportunity to learn more about each other's lives, which greatly contributes to our cohorts' community. 

Here are some of our cohort's favorite quotes! 

• “Feelings aren’t facts, but it’s a fact how you feel”
• “Life is short and it is here to be lived” 
• “To handle yourself, use your head. To handle others, use your heart”
• “Be the change you want to see in the world”
• “We cannot become what we want by remaining what we are” 
• “Don’t give up your dreams or your dreams will give up on you” 
• “Let it be or let it go” 

I encourage you all to continue reflecting on how these quotes, or others, make you feel and use this activity as a way to get to know others and yourself!
