Life tends to be a mixed bag, and so we take the good with the bad.
The bad here is my long-time friend Ian is currently in the hospital from a heart attack. Still in critical condition, we won't be able to visit him for a while. He's been non-responsive since he went in Friday, so who knows if he's even still there, in a real sense.
I had my phone off all week while I was at Lark in the Morning camp, so I didn't find out about it until yesterday on our way back home. So much for ending the week on a pure high.
But that does lead me to the good, which was being at Lark, spending time with old friends and meeting new ones. Enjoying music, as it is meant to be. Enjoying life, and remembering what's truly valuable and important in it. Remembering who I am, as well, not just a solitary engineer slaving away thru the long hours of the night, but a creator and interpreter of life.
