Disappointingly, community doesn't always work as we anticipate. Lesson learned. I wont go into detail, as I don't want to disclose information that isn't mine, but I will say that the summer at Loth idea, due to a break-down in communication and support became moot.
I'm pretty disappointed. No, I'm hurt and I'm livid about the entire ordeal, but I suppose I have to put on my big girl panties and deal with it, huh?
On one hand, I want to have compassion for others, when I see them making choices that are out of their character, obviously hurtful to themselves or others, but on the other hand, I'm rarely on the receiving end of these situations and so being there now is another story. It's more difficult than it used to be to feel compassion in response to selfishness. I'd love to say that it comes easy for me (it used to) to humble myself, accept that I don't necessarily know whats best for anyone else, and so support the people I love, even when their choices don't make a bit of sense to me. But it's not easy to do that when their choices create so much drama and inconvenience for me and for my family.
But, such is life. I'm working as hard as I can to take every lesson I'm supposed to get from this experience.
