creativity, connection, being there.

creativity, connection, being there. here's another great talk by brene brown that is as challenging as it is inspiring. she reminds us how important it is to be true ourselves: to create and express who we are.

the more we get together, the happier we'll be.

The Pinecrest Team keeps growing. As Pinecrest evolves, we are approaching everything in a fresh new way. Introducing Iska! Iska is the new Camp Host at Pinecrest. Her job is to be around to make sure everything is secure and be available to community members. She is the owner of, and will be available at, the Huge Black Bus across from the A-Frame. Instead of having a employees living in the A-frame House in the center of the park, we will be using this building for the main office, a retreat center, and hopefully a certified kitchen.
Jill and Wilson will also be around as they continue to make improvements to the park. Judy will be back next season at the Clubhouse. And Timo will be hosting special events and other community projects. When you see someone new zooming around in a golf cart, be sure to flag them down and introduce yourself. Just like the old camp song says:
"The more we get together, The happier we'll be."

The secret of a full life.

"The secret of a full life is to live and relate to others as if they might not be there tomorrow, as if you might not be there tomorrow. It eliminates the vice of procrastination, the sin of postponement, failed communications, failed communions. This thought has made me more and more attentive to all encounters. meetings, introductions, which might contain the seed of depth that might be carelessly overlooked. This feeling has become a rarity, and rarer every day now that we have reached a hastier and more superficial rhythm, now that we believe we are in touch with a greater amount of people, more people, more countries. This is the illusion which might cheat us of being in touch deeply with the one breathing next to us. The dangerous time when mechanical voices, radios, telephones, take the place of human intimacies, and the concept of being in touch with millions brings a greater and greater poverty in intimacy and human vision."
