Thank you for your comment! Seriously-...Oh Gregory. Thank you for your comment! Seriously--it pumped me up in a way that few things do. You know, because sometimes it's hard to see your own life from the outside and to step back to reflect on how all the little pieces fit together. In some ways, I think this blog is partly responsible for making me take part in a range of activities, or at least to document them in certain ways, because I know they'll be good material for writing. Even formulating some of my goals clearly at the beginning of this year (among them: write a blog that I update regularly!) has led to them being enacted in a way that is even surprising to me. I would really encourage you to step back from the books and think about what elements of your local community you want to connect with, or at least when that will become a possibility for you. Again, thanks for the encouragement, and let me know if you ever need a processing/inspiration conversation!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18445688693296690667noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6769177471688750256.post-77886738193456406652011-04-05T10:09:47.180-05:002011-04-05T10:09:47.180-05:00You guys are amazing!
When I read your blog, Anna...You guys are amazing! <br />When I read your blog, Anna, I always think to myself: I can't believe how much FUN you are having almost every single day. Each event you write about would be the most fun thing in a whole month for me! I feel like I live such a boring life compared to you. Or, phrased differently, I think you set a great model for how to combine passion, intellect, fun, and meaning into your life! I would like to be more involved in my local community like you are...but somehow I keep getting drawn back to the books, writing, reading, thinking, blah, blah, blah! ;)<br /><br />Cheers,<br />GregoryGregory R.https://www.blogger.com/profile/01547461344710485684noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6769177471688750256.post-12887651297795023362011-04-04T17:31:22.901-05:002011-04-04T17:31:22.901-05:00I know!
