Recall a specific incident when someone’s words offended you. Describe what was said, how it made you feel, and what actions you took in response. Reflect on whether your response helped resolve the situation or changed how you think about communication.

 One time someone called me a dumb little girl. It made me feel sad because of how much work I put in as far as getting my education and how comfortable I am knowing what I know at my age. In response, I stated “ it takes one to know one” which didn’t necessarily resolve the situation, but made me think by communicating that, that it would show them how that made me feel.
