Earth Day & a little bit everything else

I was blown away with the turn out for Earth Day pitch in an clean up this past Saturday.  I've been with the school for a lot years and I've participated in this clean up but I've never seen so many people participate.  I really loved seeing everyone genuinely excited to be there and the interaction was awesome to see.  Outside of the obvious, I find the opportunity to intereact and develop realtionships with classmates a big bonus.  We don't have enough time before and after class to to interact with each other and Earth day gave me the opportunity to just chat while picking up cigarette buts LOL!.

It's been a while since I've blogged and there are a few reasons but there aren't any reasons at the same time.  I've slowly slid back and I could feel myself about to get onto that old well worn path.  However the Earth Day event this past Saturday was exactly what I needed.  I needed to reconnect, re engage and just get back to being with my classmates.  I'm the sort of person that needs in person interation to remain engaged.  The virtual world works for me but only for a limited time.  The past month has seen me ramp up my travel with work and as a result it hasn't allowed me to attend in person during the week.  I've tried to fight to against this but I've always failed so instead of getting discouraged I've just come to realise that it is what it is.  That however doesn't mean I've given up, it means I have to make some changes as best I can to my work schedule.  When I attend at least one in person class per week, it's enough to keep me engaged for the rest of the week to be virtual.
