Counselling is Coming to An End!

I am not sure if many of my 'people' will understand the reason, I took the path of counselling, I am not sure I understood it myself at the time. However, what I can say, is that it was a response to an intensively painful period of my life when I was lacking in initiative and bordering on the realm of depression and was on the brink.

I had to take more than a month off work and it was clear my productivity had dipped, so I clearly had to respond in some way. I am grateful to my chief executive who recognised the signs and suggested this path. I was speaking to a Pastor friend of mine the other day, and old friend, but he was not sure about counselling particularly if it was not Christian based. All I can say is that after 10 weeks, I feel better and empowered for the future. I still have low days and border on intense sadness but I understand better. When this ends next week I will for now be part of the Lone Twin Network, a support group.

There are many areas of my life that remain a work in progress, but what can I do but continue to trust in the infinite mercy of God as I work through them day by day. In other words, working out my own salvation with fear and trembling. I have no choice than to become the man God's wants me to become if I want to fulfil my desire to be reunited to my twin whenever that is. For now I know I will not die but live to fulfil the call of God upon my life.

Thank you Peju for pointing out that the URL that I gave the 77 Staff School BB group was incorrect, God bless you.
