A mother's fear.........

My son over slept on the train from Paris to Le Mans and awoke in Rennes.He was so tired,stressed and over whelmed it took a toll on his body and it shut down.He was in a city where he knew no one and wasn't sure where a hotel could be found.He called me and I felt so helpless! He only had a calling card with a few minutes on it and couldn't stay on long, so he hung up leaving me fearing for his safety.I said a small prayer and while waiting got online to see what this city was like.I discovered there was a hotel very near the train station. I prayed my son would find this hotel soon.At that very moment my phone rang, it was my son, he had found the hotel,thank God.
He was going to get some well deserved rest and start first thing the next morning going back to his destination,Le Mans.
The next day he called to let me know he was in Le Mans and in his apartment.He had bought some groceries and spoke with his landlord.He was going to walk around the city some to check things out and then settle in for the night.He said it finally hit him that he was all alone and far away from home and all the people who love him, when he got his things all unpacked.He has a week before school starts, so he'll have time to sight see and get use to the area some.I'm a thankful mom, that her son is safe after a slight scare,(for her) and about to begin another amazing adventure.
