Yes. I am sad to be leaving. I have felt far more of a community and a purpose here than I do in Boston. Even though I have had a fairly solitary summer, the friends I have made have felt like family. The work I do here feels like momentum, both for the environmental cause and the cause of moving my own life forward.
but… that’s okay. I still have miles to go before I sleep, and a beautiful niece to pick up and dote on, and a very handsome cat to roll around and be upside down with.
The goal now is a simple one- figure out what it was here that felt like home, and create a community in Boston. I needed this summer, and this stark realization of what might be lacking in my life, to figure out where my priorities are… and I can use that knowledge to go back to boston and create a community and a purpose for myself there.
Who’s with me? OPERATION BE HAPPY WHERE YOU ARE STARTS NOW. (I’ll be making t-shirts.)
I want a tee-shirt! Seriously. It is how I am trying to live my life; hard work.
