Life

I've missed my friends; my friends in "real life" and my friends here.
Though I am preparing to depart for THAILAND and LAOS for THREE WEEKS, I will come back with vibrant photos of life in another dimension that is known as Southeast Asia and I will share them all with you.
Miss you - really I do.

On our drive to the playa I was telling Raol, an experienced burner, about my philosophy on Burning Man. Shortly summarized, at Burning Man, wishes come true.
He said that what he would wish for was impossible. He wanted his wife to come, his friends Gomez & Sharon to come, and he wanted to find this sweet girl named Hannah that he and Paula had met on their first trek to the burn.
Paula didn't come; she was resolved. But Gomez and Sharon changed their minds last minute and found us (in 40,000 people, that's a feat) without trouble. And Hannah was the one friend that my sister had plans to meet up with.
At Burning Man, wishes *do* come true.

BURNING MAN 2005 - WEDNESDAY (?)
I didn't take any photos on Wednesday. I was so bummed out about my broken camera it didn't leave my tent for a couple of days.

“It does not matter that only a few in each generation will grasp and achieve the full reality of man’s proper stature—and the rest will betray it. It is those few that move the world and give life its meaning—and it is those few that I have always sought to address. The rest are no concern of mine; it is not me or The Fountainhead that they will betray: it is their own souls.”
~ Ayn Rand

Sandy and I are so similar in some ways that it has caused rifts in our friendship in the past. Now these same similarities are cornerstones for us to build on. I'm so thankful for Sandy's place in my world.
