For people that personally know me, they know that I am not good with change. I usually like to make plans ahead of time. And I really don’t react very well to the last minute text to hang out or whatever.
Most of the time I don’t have plans but I guess with my PTSD I like to feel protected in my little bubble.
I am really trying to challenge myself to be open to spur of the moment plans. About a week ago I was near downtown talking to a sister about the caregiver job for her dad. Another sister called me to say that she wanted to go on a picnic in the downtown area and wanted to see if I wanted to go.
Surprisingly I jumped at the chance to go on the picnic. My usual response would have been to say no and make up an excuse. But instead, I just leaped at the chance. We had a really nice time. We went to a park near The Battery.
So this situations shows me that it is possible to do things spur of the moment. I can definitely have boundaries but it is also good for try to live in the moment.
To GOD Be The GLORY
Take Care Much Love
