Here is my day two story.
This is my story for the day.
My First Trip – Here is my story
Day One draft. I would appreciate suggestions for improvement.
What a great trip and Spiritual Journey! From a farm in Minnesota to a beautifully engineered Grotto of Jesus’ final hours. I like how you compare the spiritual aspects of the Grotto to your dedication to the farm.
Thanks, Nancy. I appreciate your comment regarding my closing reflection.
Day One. Here is my story.
Thanks for sharing an exemplar of your fear of swimming through your story of a picnic with your family. Your story gave me a glimpse of the tremendous amount of work you have done over the years to identify the cause of your fear and how you were able to express your feelings.
Thanks for providing some transparency into your CPTSD. It is heartbreaking to know that as a child, you recognized something was wrong but didn’t know what it was. I pray that you are in a better place now.
Day One – Hope you like my story
What fun Dar, except for being scared. It’s almost as good as a ghost story. It was a dark and stormy night…. Thank you for sharing your story.
Posted on the wrong page.
Iceland and Ireland sound wonderful. It really did not get dark. I hope you enjoyed your Celebrity Cruises trip as much as I enjoyed mine on the Horizon to Bermuda. Good story.
Loved this story. Next time your family goes on a cruise, I want to join you. In my dreams anyway.
