Handling the news that I didn't get in to the summer writing program better than I thought. Once the application was in, I had no further control and I was fine with that. It frees up my summer to do other things. Time to make a new plan. Thanks for the support that was offered by many here.
Summer Program Rejection: Handling the news... - Heal My PTSD
Summer Program Rejection
Great attitude Maggymax. Congratulations on trying for something you're interested in, doing everything in your power to get it, then releasing the outcome. This is the picture of health and thriving. I think accomplishing this mind set is more worthy of congratulations than getting into the program. Might not have been the right time or right program for you. With this mindset you're sure to attract what's most right for you!
Your response is most helpful, GeminiDancer. I agonized over the potential outcome before I heard from them and when it didn't go my way, realized I have other work to do at this time. I really need this summer to heal and spend time with my daughter not to work hard at achieving another accomplishment. I like my attitude, too and it is a lot different than it might have been in the past. Thank you for sharing your perspective.
