Finally, I got an opportunity to have a good ole' fashioned weekend! After a fun celebratory dinner with my cohort on Friday night, I actually spent a Saturday marching to the beat of my own drum. I got to enjoy the weather, friends, and community fun; Maryland almost felt like New York in the summertime to me today!
Right downtown, they had an Indonesian street festival and a youth concert. With friends, I got to take in some of the cultural side of the DMV while celebrating the gifts and talents of young people who perform in honor of the spirit of Gandhi. I ended up spending about 6 hours there, when I intended on leaving after two.
I don't have much else to say, but figured I should definitely make note of the days that are simply fun. In the spirit of Gandhi, and the concert, I really feel blessed and at peace. Thank You Creator!
I am so happy. That there are moments of joy in the struggle. I hope I get to see you at least once this summer.
