I surprised my friends who went with me. Honestly, I surprised myself too because I never imagined that I would allow myself to do what I was about to do. I was anxious and I was nervous. And not to be overly dramatic, but in some respects, I was scared to death. However, I did it. And it was one of the most exhilarating forms of respite I've ever experienced.
Hi Neighbor,
Welcome to another unplugged episode of Anchors of Encouragement. In this episode, I would like to build on the concept of respite we first introduced in Episode 40.
Respite is something that adoptive parents have told me is important to them as they navigate the challenges of adoptive parenting.
Today’s story is about how I got out of my comfort zone by allowing a friend to lead me to respite and retreat. I did something I never would have entertained had it not been for her.
Consider this story with me as we look at 3 ways to embrace the Anchor of Retreat.
Hope and healing are on the way.
Your Thrill-Seeking Neighbor,
Tim
P.S. Oops! After I had recorded and published this episode, I realized there was a 5th activity option. I had suppressed it because it caused as much if not more anxiety than the zip line, kayaking in an underground cavern. I can’t swim! I think you can see why I suppressed this option:)
