EXPLORING YOUR MULTIPLE INTELLIGENCES

UNIT 3

INTERPERSONAL INTELLIGENCE

A. Understanding a Friend’s Feeling One sunny afternoon, Mia and
Lily were playing together in the park. Lily seemed a bit quiet and
kept looking down. Mia noticed that something was bothering
her friend. Instead of ignoring Lily’s feelings, Mia sat beside her
and asked, “Are you okay? You seem a little sad.” Lily hesitated
at first but then opened up about a problem she was facing at
school. Mia listened attentively, offering a comforting presence
and supportive words. By the end of their conversation, Lily
felt better knowing that she had a friend who cared about her
feelings.
