Last Circle, me

Last Circle

Here I stand in our last circle. Do I look full of joy (from music and friends), sadness (at departing), anticipation (of returning home to my family), and exhaustion (from 10 days of emotionally intense music and community building)?

Well, I was.

For me this camp has become much more than the music. It's Boot Camp for Intentional Community, where everyone is there for a purpose and is working not just for themselves but for the love and advancement of each other and the community as a whole. It's an opportunity to re-examine one's aims and action, to try hard things with the support of others, and to offer support to others without arrogance or superiority.

And the music is damn fun too.
