Alastair Milloy / reflections
The next day was a completely different experience. Having spent the day alone and fasting from dawn to dusk (with none of the great veggie food supplied by Rob or any carrot cake) we spent the majority of the day in the tenttipi telling our stories. After each story anyone who wanted to could make a comment on what they had heard – “I heard a story about………”. It was great to hear what each person thought of the stories they heard.
We’re all on a journey, everyone starting from a different place and everyone going somewhere. Will we all end up in the same place?
The journey home – travelling back to life away from the wilderness. Having spent the week getting to know everyone in an amazing environment, all of a sudden we are heading home to the cities, roads, hustle and bustle and people all travelling to and fro and going on their journeys to somewhere new. What new things will we see and do and what will happen next on our journey of change?
There is one comment on reflections:
‘’Once the realization is accepted that even between the closest human beings infinite distances continue, a wonderful living side by side can grow, if they succeed in loving the distance between them which makes it possible for each to see the other whole against the sky.’’ Rilke
