Last night, I was thinking about retreats. A lot. Before this
COVID-19 thing started, I was thinking I need to get out of here for
awhile and go be elsewhere to collect myself. Not ‘find’ myself
– because we don’t actually ‘lose’ ourselves… – but to
collect myself. Every retreat I’ve ever been on, even the
scrapbooking one I went on in 2005, had a ‘theme’ of sorts.
Every
single one. (= That got me thinking, I was going to go be with God
for a few days out in the wilderness, but the people I was going to
go do it with, they didn’t get a chance to get back to me when I’d
left them a message, because the COVID-19 virus started hitting our
country, too. Understandably, that retreat wasn’t meant to be,
and I’m okay with that. Everything, literally, that I was
going to do with those beautiful ladies, I can easily do here at
home.
But,
having never done a private retreat before, let alone one on my own,
I was at a loss as to what to do, where to even start.
So.
