Reflection by Cormac Lutes, 2020-10-18

When I think of belonging I think of being part of something. When I think of belonging I think of having a role to play in a community, somewhere that you can feel safe and happy.

Belonging to something also comes with responsibility. If you belong to a community you have the responsibility to play your part in it.

Belonging doesn’t need to mean being part of a community. It could mean being part of a family or even basically anything that you decide to be part of and are accepted into.

I feel that I have a sense of belonging with the LUUC and my school Loyola when I am playing part in those communities I feel important.
