what amazes me is how fast i reverted back to normal. sure there were many things that touched me in camp; events that gave me that 'spiritual high'; the wonder that we see as the workings of the holy spirit - poey's video, alfred's sharing, pray with, kenneth's piano during mass, von's sharing, cheryl & log team & catechists...
but just reaching home, taking a bath, switching on the comp... and just like that, the past few days sweeps to the back of the mind and compartmentalizes itself in the "holey-baloney-chunk-of-experiences-that-i-can-use-for-sharings-in-camps" part of my mind. woot... how quickly the die rolls.
in e midst of camp, i had a sudden burst of gratitude to the people in my life i can be comfortable around. that lack of stifling self-consciousness. the liberating freedom of being able to express without restraint. for all these people, i am immensely thankful. i like to think of fulfilling relationships like a double helix. cos we spiral around each other, bantering, exchanging views, acutely aware of our own individuality and yet keeping in mind our connection with each other. and all the time, we ascend. as we spiral, we arise together, nurturing one another and helping one another to grow, to reach greater heights.
