Setbacks..

[teaser]

Is it a setback or is it just moving forward?

When you learn something new, it takes practice - you don't always get it right away.

I've been driving to my mom's house... taking different ways... and sometimes I get that panicky feeling.

And this last time, I "wanted" to drive whether I had that feeling or not. I did get panicky for a while, but I "wanted" to do it.

To show myself that I could do it and I knew what to do. And I did. I still have a hard time giving me a "high five" when I'm done. But I'm working on it.

Maybe we need a new word instead of "setback."

soooo totally moving forward!!!

i know from my own experience that even wanting to drive again was a HUGE step forward! and i am sure it is for you as well! it seems like you are working through your fear and that panicky feeling - which is right on!!! i hope you keep on trying and i know eventually that panicky feeling will be a thing of the past!! :)

keep on keeping on!!

Thanks, onceagain! And you are right - wanting is a huge thing.

I went out to my mom's again today and shocked her by having two visits in one week!! :lol: I made a last minute decision to use the freeway as there was a huge backup on the road I was on and that went fairly well.

Keep on keeping on.. is right :)
