One of the final parts of our debrief was to share with each person the ways we saw they were gifted or how God used them. It seemed a little cheesy at first, the idea of structured affirmation. But when the time came around, it was such a blessing.
It was also the particular time that all the reality of it being our last day decided to rush upon me, full force. It got to Heinrich and Doris and I darn near lost it.
First it hit my nose, then it shook my hands and my voice, and stubbornly welled up in my eyes. And, naturally, I was furious, to be reduced to whimpering and sniffling.
I just kept thinking, “It’s never going to be the same.”
Nearly all the support network I’ve had for two years, gone literally overnight.
Ugh.
I guess TIMO is officially over. I’ve got a mug and a certificate telling me that’s the case. Undeniable now, I suppose.
