Retreat takes a lot of work.

This weekend we have a company "retreat". I should be excited to have a free weekend in a very nice hotel with all the activities planned and paid for but I'm not. I'm ashamed to say I worry about whether I will have stylish attire for the various activities. Not worried enough to run out and buy new clothes for the event, just worried enough to not want to go. It's shallow to care what others will think of my sense of style but it's like an advertisement of how savvy I am.
I need to focus on the persons I am with and care more about them than what they may think of me. I need to love the people around me and in order to climb out of the circle of me, I need to connect with the One that loves them more than life itself.
