Fun times! Day three is when the bulk of personal work is done, and today was a doozy. Lots of Ah Ha’s and realizations, a hip that ached because it wanted to be noticed, tears and joy. Lots of learning. As I watched my fellow students take on the role of coach and deal with whatever came their way, my respect for them grew and grew. For some, it was their first time in the “hot seat.” Everyone’s coaching was an inspiration. I know I’ll soon be in that same hot seat, and I know that it will be a positive learning experience, no matter what it looks like. The container we create for one another is safe and secure. I trust my fellows implicitly.
I had the good fortune to participate in a reflective round pen exercise with Abhain the Gypsy Vanner, who used to be with me in Washington. This was his first day on the job, and what a tremendous job he did! His joy at doing this work radiates from him, along with his love and caring. He has grown into himself in the last six months, and is calm and focused. I was able to thank him for giving me the gift of this program, and he thanked me for sending him to the place he was meant to be, with Melisa. It was a sweet moment, and I so appreciate and respect the fine horse he has become.
Almost all of us went to dinner together, and my husband, Glenn, joined us. We set him at the head of the table as the token masculine energy, and we all had a ball. Talk about appreciation! I don’t know too many husbands who would come to dinner with 10 powerful women and survive to tell the tale! I look forward to being reunited with him tomorrow night. For today, though, it was back with my sisters to rest, rejuvenate, and look forward to our final day.
