The teachings and principles of Jediism that I have aquired since I've arrived have helped me make sense out of all kinds of things I had been having trouble with prior. Mostly things dealing with perception of myself, society, and the world around me at large. This has begun to affect me on a number of levels from my ability to communicate to people and my self confidence in general, to taking a frustrating event and making it not so bad because of the meaning I begin to realize comes from it. This isn't everything but its a broad view of the most important things, and its just a start.
