I&#8217;ve rarely been more vulnerable with &#8216;strangers,&#8217; as I was in these past two weeks. Each of us expressed difficult things, and we all experienced emotional and spiritual growth. The team-building activities were challenging and occasionally frustrating, but they taught us patience, determination, teamwork, and trust. We now share a &#8216;oneness&#8217; that is difficult to explain. The real-life scenarios at the end were challenging yet enjoyable, and we were able to apply what we had previously learned. I am leaving profoundly impacted and thrilled about living my life to the fullest in whichever way God directs me.\u201d<\/div><div dir=\"auto\">&#8211; A
