Post retreat situation

[Marylov]

Thank you! I don't feel very brave, I am taking this pretty hard. Yesterday was one of the hardest days. My D and I left Friday evening to go stay with my parents. He was packing when we left, and it was a very emotional goodbye for both of us. I am really praying that these next few days pass quickly, and that I can start to feel at peace with our new normal. And I am going to really try to keep in mind that my actions should say, "I'm going to be happy living my life. You are free to join if you want, and if you don't, that's okay too."
