Where have you been?
With my thoughts...everywhere!!!
I'm loving london :)
But here are the highlights of the past couple of weeks: I atteneded lectures by prominent figures and on a number of contreverisal issues, from alan greenspan to the president of Rowanda to environmental skeptics cooling down the ddebate on climate change. It was moving, it was rigorous..and i was there to hear it!
I had the craziest weekend in Cardiff!!! it was wild and crazy and i simply loved the town..the people so liberating, carefree and simple. There was a rugby match and everyone was just out there screaming, dancing, singing and drinking. It was awesome.
I walked in a march to the parliment asking to withdraw british troops from Iraq and felt the power of the people's movement. I heard them say: This is what democracy is. It felt like something i was deprived off. to walk where your voice could be heard. And now check this out, Brown is actually going to go against the states and is partially removing troops in March. So maybe, a voice was heard after all. Governments there by the people need to act to act for the people, the people need to speak.
What inspired me the most? the people i've been meeting, i made freinds from far away and thu we didn't spend much time together, they each had their lesson to teach: Hannah, Sina, Valentina, Maria...so beautiful, they freed me from my many fears. I was free to look outwards again, unprotected.
I've been trying to figure out my courses, meeting with potential employers, trying to figure out my career path! it's quite crazy! I did yoga, joined societies and my heart was as overwhelemd as my mind boggled with thoughts and ideas. I was creating a space and it was filling up quickly. I am happy :)
