Pacifica

I'm here in the dorm at Pacifica Grad. Inst. tonight, for a weekend seminar on Jungian Dream Tending. I don't start classes until September, so this is a nice warm up. The campus is beautiful, nestled in the mountains overlooking the sea. This part of campus was originally a monastery and the peaceful quiet seems to have carried over to its new incarnation. This is my fourth time here, and it never ceases to amaze. Here's the view behind the dorm.



There are fountains and statues scattered around the gardens and in the woods. There's a Kuan Yin statue in the circle garden, and a fountain with an otter on it nearby!

It's dark now, and the crickets and frogs are loud outside my window. I'm trying to get some writing done, but I haven't settled into the energy yet.

You know what? I've never lived in a dorm before coming here. I went straight from home to an apartment. Another new learning experience. Being near the bathroom is great, but I"m also right by the stairs. On the second floor and the showers are in the basement! Never too old to adjust.
