Came off Wrong.

It has come to my attention that my last blog may have come off with the wrong message.

I did not want to it to come off sounding as though I feel everyone is out to get me and looking for sympathy. I wanted to state a few hardships I have faced, and express how excited I am to have worked hard to get through some of them and start this new chapter and new and exciting opportunities within my community in Toronto and across Canada.

I wrote and posted that blog in less than an afternoon. I should have spent more time reading and editing it to make sure the point I wanted to make was the one I was expressing.

I left Florida on Saturday to come here to Mexico. I am incredibly lucky enough to be involved in a truly amazing project here. From the moment I landed, the inspiration I was feeling in Florida has increased an unmeasurable amount, peaking yesterday afternoon. We are building a cabin at 11,000ft, and between aout 10 off us, we erected an 18ft, 800+lbs log with nothing but human power. It seems like such a simple thing, but it was truly amazing, words can not express the feeling.

As I said, all the inspiration to be creative I was feeling in Florida doesn't even make a blip on the map compared to what I am feeling now. I am here in Mexico until Friday. I am both dreading and very much looking forward to the day. I want to stay here with the amazing people and continue to help in the process, but I am extremely excited to get back to Toronto and start my own process there.
