Limbo Again...


Alright, so I have been lacking on the writing here..but life has been just a tad crazy here, as things in Camphill have really heated up and are just now starting to cool down What with Aspen house having to totally split up, and me being the first one to go, I must admit my life took quite a tramatic and dramatic turn ...but let me catch you up on the happenings of my life here...
  • In February, I went home for a week, which was lovely.
  • I was also part of the Good Friday play here (which was awesome), during this play I sprained my knee...but now they arent sure it was a sprain because I am still in some pain.
  • I visited Beaver Run, and absolutely loved it. I have been accepted into 2nd year seminar and will continue there with the curative education course. I think it will be a great change.
  • Aspen house has totally been emptied out, but I moved first so actually didnt get to help with the packing and moving, which on a soul level really bothered me. Everytime someone who wasnt emotionally attached to that house told me they were going to help pack i couldnt help but cry. I am still not over it, as the final moves happened just this week.
  • I was placed back in a care house as an extra help, and it just so happened that at this time our oldest villager ( who is 94) broke his hip...meaning I came accidentally at the right time.
  • I heard back from the Salesian sisters but their come and see weekends arent good for my camphill schedule...I am trying to find another time.
But now I am still in Camphill Limbo as i like to call it, not really feeling connected to the village anymore (wierd, after 2 years of pouring my heart and soul into it I am not feeling connected). I dont know why this is...I guess I am looking for more in my life.
