Prompt: People sometimes feel the need to step away from their normal routines or environments in order to better understand themselves. Describe a time when you needed distance from a situation, place, or group of people in order to think more clearly or gain perspective. What did that experience teach you about yourself?

 I apologize I am doing this blog post late, but a time that I distanced myself was this weekend when I went to a retreat in the mountains with the lakeside FCA. It was such an amazing experience to grow with the Lord and others. This experience taught me so much about the Lord and myself that I will cherish.

Summary: Today I stayed home because I was sick.

Reflection: I learned to reflect on my experiences.
