Alive and happy

I had a beautiful weekend at the Fires of Venus retreat. Many fractured places were made whole, and not by any real effort of mine.

I just tried to stay open and move without judgement, and good things happened. I was able to take time here and there to be still and listen to people I rarely get to see or learn from. These were deeply rejuvenating intervals, and they were punctuated by all kinds of experiences: pleasure, anxiety, silliness (really important) and occasional risk-taking.

It was good. I'm glad I went. No clue what happens next, but that's just how I want it. These folks keep my toes, and I like it.

Sometimes. They also make me uncomfortable and force me to try new things, which is difficult at the time and *most excellent* in the long run.

I keep choosing friends and companions who push me into uncomfortable waters, and that's probably because I can't stand to be static for too long.

Maybe someday I'll even stop complaining about it. : 0
