"What are your values and how do they define you? Where do they fit in terms of your council's values? In terms of the community's values?"
Values are very important to me, as you see on my profile I have several pictures that shaped me to who I am today. The biggest picture is my twin brother Tarron. He is 5 minutes older than me, and really takes that 5 minutes to consideration. Like I said before I am the youngest out of 5 and I believe my family is shaped me who I am today. Family is very important to me. I do not see them as much, but when ever we have time, we kick it like we use to when we were young. My mother took care of us, for the most part by herself. She is a very strong women that fought hard to raise me and my sibling up the right way. Another value that shapes me who I am is GOD. With out him, I would have anything that I have now. I am not living great, but I am still blessed because I could be living worse than I am now.
My Fraternity is another Key thing in my life right now. I have been in the Fraternity for almost 2 years, and because I have witnessed so many things that I possibly would not have witnessed if I wasn't in a Frat, it has made me grow better as person, and as a man. I have worked hard in so many ways for this fraternity and I have benefited from it tremendously.
One that is getting to be a value in my life is love. I have been in my relationship since my freshmen year of college. Her name is Kayla and she is a member of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority Inc. We have been through our ups and our downs, but in the long run, it has shaped us in so many ways. I have traveled the country and experienced so many things with this lady and I can truly say that she has made me a better person.
I feel like most of my values represents a lot of the members in my council already; God, Family, Fraternity. I feel like if we can work on ourselves first and realize why we joined a organization, we would be able to shape our council in so many ways. For example, all of us on our Ex Board for our council has committed to help and better our council and community as a hole, and I believe that it will take a lot of time, but we can only move forward.
