Well I finally got my notification from
Hedgebrook. I wasn't accepted. Well, that's how the old ball bounces. Am I upset? No. Am I disappointed? Yes, but not enough to beat myself up over it. Everything happens for a reason, this I know.
I was invited to apply again in 2013 when they open registration to new residents (2012 will be dedicated to alumnae). They were also kind enough to send me link for a few retreats I could take (that I didn't have to be accepted to).
What did I learn from this process? Be thankful for everything and every opportunity. Do my best no matter what. My husband always asks me what I would do differently, if anything. I don't know what I would do differently. I think I did the best I could with what I had.
On another note: I
have been invited to speak at three different events in 2012. That's really exciting.
So why did I title this entry
One Doors Closes, Another Opens? I know God is still working in my life. His plan is perfect. (Even though I don't know what it may be.)
