Visualizing any experience means you have to examine what you were before that experience and how the whole experience has changed you after going through that whole situation. It made you somehow a better or worse person.
People or new people scare me to the point where I can’t function properly. I applied for the Amal Fellowship thinking that I will be able to do better than before after joining Amal and I was right, my decision proved right. It wouldn’t have been possible without all these amazing fellows and especially teachers or more mentors.
Before joining Amal, I was completely an introvert person because I was afraid that what other people will think about me if I will say something wrong, this fear always pushed me back from sharing my thoughts and ideas with others but after 2 weeks of Amal, I felt a lot of changes, I started coping up with my problems that I faced at the start of the Amal sessions. I started talking to other fellows about project works and many other things. I stuck to my laptop every weekend constantly interacting with Amal fellows and enjoying the best of this time.
This picture reminds me of the best time I have ever spent in my whole life. If I say that the whole Amal journey has been brilliant and the best journey for me and other fellows, it won’t be wrong. It won’t be wrong to say that it changed me completely, changed me in ways I never thought I could change myself.
This picture describes how my vision of learning has changed after the first 2 weeks of Amal fellowship. The Amal fellowship gave me the courage to get out of my comfort zone, to share my ideas and opinions, to speak with more prominence. I remember writing in my SMART GOALS that I want to improve my speaking communication skills and now at the very end of my fellowship, I can see it happening. Amal gave me the confidence and surety that I am not a lost soul and I can make myself better. It taught me that the journey becomes beautiful and lovely with the right people.
I started this fellowship with nothing but my fear of socializing and I am ending it with an optimistic mindset and with a smile and a lot of great friends. Everything has an end and goodbyes are always sad and hard, especially saying goodbye to the amazing and great people. I will be taking a lot of good memories, great and helpful friends and lessons with me.
