I saw quite a few people today as I went to the Rastro, a local Market where a friend of mine was giving a talk about personal freedom and after that there was a jam. I also got to hang with some of my favorite people.
I had a conversation with a couple, who recently bought a property. They are renting a house, as the land is not ready for them to live on. One of them seemed a bit stressed by the situation, so we spoke about embracing winter and this opportunity to really think about what they wanted on the land and take the time to design their ideal living space. To just slow down , so they don´t make any rushed decisions.
I am lucky that I am a part of a wonderful collective and I have definitely met my tribe with some of these people and we do support one another. We used to meet up regularly, now it is more spaced out but we all decided recently that we need to come together more often. Start sharing our skills again and focusing on helping each other grow xxx
How was the talk?
That sounds like an interesting conversation with the landowners for sure. I think these kinds of "random" interactions can have quite a profound effect on our own thinking and decisions, but we seem to have less of them now people bury their faces into a screen when out in public.
Hopefully you guys will actually take the steps to connect more again. I feel like it is one of the main ways to begin a grassroot fightback against the engineered disconnection.
