Take a little time now to identify and think about some of the things that are important to you. Perhaps you care about creativity, or family relationships, or your career, your faith, music, or having a sense of humor...
Pick two or three of these items, and reflect on them for a few minutes.
Then take a few moments to write down, on paper, for yourself, a few sentences about why they are important to you.
You will not be turning this assignment in or sharing this information with anyone else in the class. You'll have about ten minutes for this activity.
