Top Strength: Fairness

Questions to help understand my strength better:

* How is your strength of fairness expressed at work, at home, and in the community?

My strength of fairness was expressed to everyone around me by treating all of them fairly with dignity and respect regardless of who they are and what they do.

* In what situations have you received feedback that you have acted unfairly?
How did you handle the situation?

There were situations that I acted unfairly and that was a long time ago. Most situations were a misunderstanding between two close friends. I used to handle it recklessly because I was like the bridge between the two of them. My mistake was that once I listened first to the other one, I easily treat the second one unfairly. I easily get prejudiced. Thinking about it today, I considered it my mistake that turned into a lesson as a part of growing up.

* How do you reconcile your sense of fairness with the reality that ''life is not fair''?

Despite the majority's opinion that ''life is not fair'', I still believe that life is fair and I am starting on to myself by treating everyone fairly with dignity and respect. Perhaps for me, I believe that life is fair, as well as everyone, for in the eyes of God we are all fair no matter what we have and who we are. All of us have souls to feed, as well as people to love, a life to live, and lastly, we have our own time that will soon end and that no power in the world can stop it. If this is still not fair, I don't know what is.

  1. Very thoughtful reflection, Princess, thank you. :)
    I like how you argue the point that actually, in your eyes, life is fair. This is an interesting and unique perspective. I would guess that another top strength is optimism? It's also really good to see you reflecting on a past event and turning it from a negative into a positive learning experience. That shows maturity and good judgment. Ka pai Princess :)

To support my learning I ask you to comment as follows:
1. Something positive - something you like about what I have shared.
2. Thoughtful - A sentence to let us know you actually read/watched or listened to what I had to say
3. Something thoughtful - how have you connected with my learning? Give me some ideas for next time or ask me a question.
