Changes?

...so even though I struggled with going on the retreat that I talked about in the last blog entry. I got a message telling me that I needed to be on this retreat, so I went and I am super glad that I did. The retreat was about a lot of things that girls have to deal with in high school. It made me think back to my high school days and all the things that I dealt with and how there are twice as many things that the girls have to deal with now. It made me want to turn back time to the days when things were easier and there was less for young people to worry about. To the days when people sat down for dinner as a family and then spent time out on their front porch.
This retreat also gave me time to reflect about what is going on in my own life. There seems to be so much stress, impatience, and tension. It seems to ba all around. Through the reflecting I came up with some great ways to combat everything else, so I was super excited to come back and put what I had learned and gained into practice. The hard thing was that when I came back I felt like I fell right back into the place I left. Into that same box and I don't know if I can climb back out. I need to figure it out and keep going and not let the BS get me down....I am just going to keep on

and find a place to vacation at.
