We Are Different, Diversity Week 2

By January 15, 2011Culture, Encouragement

This year I’m doing some fun posts over select weekends in 2011 aimed at engaging my readership, but also learning from each other. The first one was a couple weeks ago.  Read it HERE.  I was leaving for Costa Rica and missed last week.

Some of these questions are serious and some are not.  Read through the comments and see how different we are from each other.

The more comments…the more we get to see our differences.

Here are this week’s questions…Choose the first answer that comes to mind if you could only pick one:

  • Would you prefer the beach or the mountains?
  • Which do you like better…peanut butter or jelly?
  • Would you rather go to the theater or a sporting event?
  • Are you more likely to send a text or place a phone call?
  • Would you prefer to hear “I love you” or “I am so proud of you”?

Go!  Answer these 5 questions and let’s see there are two sides to every opinion.

If you have ideas for this series of ways I could explore differences, let me know.

Beach - would take either more often though
PB - jelly sandwich doesn't sound appealing
Sports - I never cry there
Text - not wild about phone conversations
Proud - it is rarely used flippantly

Good point Tony about the use of the word love being used flippantly
Mountain
PB& J both
Depends on who/what is playing
call (it's faster than texting)
I love you
Mountains - Love mountains, hate sand...
Peanut Butter - Could live on peanut butter
Sporting event - although i don't frequent much of either choice here
Phone Call
Proud of you - people have overused I love you but proud of you is not used enough
