I’m back to the world, and coming home March 16
Just wanted to jot down a quick note saying that I got back to Bangkok from my meditation retreat today, and I leave for Los Angeles tomorrow evening. I spend a day with my grandparents, and then fly on the 19th the last leg of my journey to Denver, and home to Boulder.
The retreat was really good, but really hard. It was far harder than I expected, and was probably one of the hardest things I’ve done. Definitely one of the hardest things I’ve done on this trip. At the same time, or rather perhaps because it was hard, I think I got a lot out of it. It’s hard to say at this point, as I haven’t really had enough time to think about it yet.
As I wasn’t allowed to journal during the course, I haven’t really written that much yet, but I do want to get some of my thoughts down in the next day or so, and I’ll post them when I do, and have the time to type them up.
It’s hard to think I’ll be home in a few days. It’s even hard to think I’ll be back in the states in about 24 hours. It’s certainly been an amazing trip, and I haven’t really even begun to think of it as a whole, and assess it in that way. It’s simply been my life for the past 16 months. I’m hoping over the next few weeks and perhaps months, I can get a bit better grasp on it, and make sense of it all.
