All the lessons I have learned from VHS are hard to sum up in two paragraphs. The biggest lesson I have learned from VHS class is that we need to all listen to what God is calling us to be in life. When the senior class and I move on to college next year, we will be on a new, exciting journey. On the journey of college, we will be faced with many important decisions and VHS has taught us to listen to God before making a choice. We are all truly being called to a certain vocation, just as Sister Colleen was called to become a sister of Saint Joseph. We sometimes need to step back from the craziness of life and reflect on our true purpose, just like many of those taking the walk on the Camino do.
Listening to God’s call for us can also apply to relationships. After listening to numerous love stories, I have learned how strong love can be if you find the right person. The couples in the love stories were great models for how to make a relationship work. I learned that each of us has our own “love language.” An understanding of love languages can help us to form closer friendships or stronger romantic relationships with someone.
Most importantly, VHS has taught me that when in doubt about something, we just need to reflect or pray to find “our way” back to our path in life.
