Socialization at School

The life at school have been accompanied by various lessons, which influences my socialization and positionality. For instance, I used to hold religious social group membership in school time, where I had a tendency of interacting with persons who belong to the same denomination. At this point, we used to carry out various religious functions together including praying, worshipping, praising, and studying scriptures among other valuable things.

On the other hand, there are numerous practices and norms, which I believe that they had influenced my behaviors as well as the way of doing things. To be specific, the advice from parents has played a vital role in shaping my beliefs and my faith. Moreover, the moral lessons provided by elderly people in the community and also during school life have greatly transformed my behaviors. For example, I have been taught to always pay homage to all individuals irrespective of their age, gender, religion, class, and race among other factors. 

Conversely, the aspect of interacting with many individuals in the learning institutions have provided me with the capability of identifying the differences existing between me and other people. For instance, due to emanating from a humble background, I realized that there is a big gap existing amid the wealthy persons and those who are unstable financially. Unlike the kids from rich families, I had a tendency of seeing life in a negative manner because of concentrating on misery rather than thinking about courses of entrapping myself from life challenges. However, I had been informed that the above difference emanates from varied ways of seeing, understanding and handling issues. In consideration with the above information, I realize have come to realize that people are different since they have varied ways of doing things, thinking and attitude among others.
