After reading my friend's recent post about her love of Minneapolis summers, I'm also realizing my own deepening love for Minneapolis. I say deepening because I already think of this place fondly. I think part of the intensity of experience, for me, is the fact that I'm only here for two more months. When you know you're under a time limit, you realize your need to experience things a little differently.
It started with being influenced by another transient friend of mine, an implant from the West Coast who didn't stick closely to schedules and valued spontaneous exploration. His love for the new helped me to try and embrace it myself, as I occasionally tried to challenge him to new places to explore myself. & now...now I find myself that much closer to being uprooted myself. In the meantime I'm trying to spend as much time as I can with my beloved friends and being as carefree as I can while still remembering I have to work full-time and pack and get my life in order so I can move feeling relatively confident the little things are taken care of.
I think Minneapolis is changing a little. Faces are being refreshed with both old and new blood. The landscape is more alive as Spring transitions into Summer. People move and refocus. We're being challenged to grow spiritually and spread it to others. I can safely say that things are good.
