I 've been leading a therapeutic art group for incarcerated Vets for a year and a half; due to a lot of administrative changes and some glitches, I needed to make a decision about continuing. I decided to end my time--here's how I processed it:
Loss, ending program participation
Good work year & a half
Set limits, got support
Changes, me out of loop
New Program, not good plan
Clear about my concerns, expectations
No dithering, no impulsiveness
Ego telling me I'm wrong
Intuition gives me truth
Relief, release
Take commitments seriously
Opportunities, responsibilities
Obstacles out of balance
Intuition gives truth
Don't have control, outgoing prayers
Thank you for sharing...
my heart feels sad hearing about the change for those who would have otherwise continued.
Standing in the tragic gap is hard
I wish you peace with what you need to do.
