validation

i’m glad i was open with folks about my trouble with the previous retreat, just talking about it with everyone felt good and it got me a private audience with the director. i felt i had done a good amount of homework on the subject before coming, but just that chat helped me feel more supported and validated. then after the final talk, i got to sit with him again for awhile and talk about the upcoming 10 day retreat he’s leading. i held off buying my plane ticket to that retreat until yesterday. i thought it would be wise to see how well we clicked and if i could overcome my concerns. now i’m psyched; a little nervous still, but generally ready for it. may sixth i’m flying to denver for my longest retreat yet.
