Holy Smokes Deneb!!
How's this whole trip for a 'reference point' to always have in your awareness of not only your capabilities, but how much pleasure you can have when you go with your own judgement & wishes....when you follow your own personal dreams!
YAY for you!!! Sounds like you dealt VERY well with an experience that would have most people sweating buckets (the whole thing about the delayed flight/connecting flight, etc).
It's delightful to hear you recognizing & SAYING all those great true things about yourself.
As those cigarette ads years ago used to say, "Baby, you've come a LONG way!"
So happy for you Deneb!
love, Kath
PS - in our family, we have little code-words or letters for certain events/situations that have happened in the past. They capture a whole situation briefly. "Is that a 'velcro'?" "Remember the cross-bow?" are a couple.
In your own mind, when you have something you want to do, or when someone is giving you advice that feels NOT what you want for yourself, you now could remind yourself by thinking something referring to this trip. For ex, "Remember SF" or "Is this a SF situation?" This could be so useful in continuing to build your self-confidence in creating the kind of life that YOU want for yourself.
