One thing that I never really thought about before this
class was privileges. We are privileged
with so much that we do not even realize just for being who we are, just for
being born where we were, etc. I never
realized how privileged I am for simply being a white American female. I have the privilege to go to school and earn
a degree. I have the privilege go where I
want to go and be who I want to be. I am
so very thankful for the privileges that I have. Because of this class, I can now better
recognize when I am taking advantage of a privilege and I am humbled by
it. I am very grateful for the things
that I have been blessed with and for the opportunities I have been given. Sometimes I feel guilty for the privileges I have
been given. This class has taught me
that everyone is privileged in some sort of way. The best thing we can do is to not let these
privileges go to waste. We should make
the most of what life has given us.
