If I have believed in at least some of the stereotypes before, now I am completely open to the world

The 8-month life is over, thinking about the members of the Karajala Club day and overnight, briefly, I am telling a story of SKYE-Jala ...
At the interview, I was convinced that what I was talking about was pointing to my strengths, though I did the opposite ... but they gave me a chance that changed my eight months ...
Most of all, I didn't want to work in Karajala because of the stereotypes that were reverberating all arround and which I worried about. But everything that changed me started here ...
I was a bit nervous in the first sessions, the tension was 100%, I didn't know what emotions did I evoke in children, whether I was talking intelligibly or not an so on. Gradually children started talking, sharing emotions, followed by theoretical and practical assignments or discussions, and started to form an united team in principle.
In the meantime I had been interviewed for a second time. The selection of study tour participants in Germany had been announced. It was already a doubled enxiety for me. I worked on the essay and a presentation for several days, and set a goal of creating a better myself as the main objective, which justified and I joined the German study tour group.
It's hard to see the changes in oneself, but all these things had been appearing slowly during those 8 months. I realized that my word could have a profound effect on others, so I became more careful. If until now I believed in at least some of the stereotypes now I am completely open to the world. If I was anxious before, now I gained confidence and became more purposeful. If before I had only lived through the problems of my community, now I consider the problems of my youth and foresee their solution as the future plans. Consequently, I could further continue listing the problems and objectives but I would rather not annoy you, but say that I've grown up together with the Karajala kids in this project, I love them and you will see me beside them more times in the future ....
