Tea With Grief – The Pursuit of Happiness Part 4
Yep, we’re still alive and live at 170 Scott Street! 10:45 a.m., use the side entrance where we’ll put out the sign, park on either side of the building or the street, bring your own coffee, no planned programming for the littles but a great space to hang out and see what the parent co-op has up its collective sleeve. There’s the “above the fold” details. Next week, same bat time, same bat channel. Whoop!
Some details:
-re: coffee…there’s coffee makers and filters already there. If someone wants to show up earlier to make coffee, that would be lovely. Same with putting out chairs. I’ll be there by 9:30 to open up and get things started, but trust me when I tell you you really, really don’t want me making the coffee. Chairs, on the other hand, are hard to do “wrong”.
-re: kids table…open casting call for folks that would be interested in helping out. We’re in “rebuild” mode on several fronts as we start to gather in person once again. No pressure or obligation please. As I’ve often said, “the community is what the community makes”, so if some of these opportunities stir a positive, joyful something in you, step up. If not, don’t.Talky Bit – at the risk of being completely cheesy, I could say that we’re moving in the direction of good grief. And you might be feeling something a lot like that, especially given the context of “the pursuit of happiness”. My commitment to myself and to us as a community is to be “as honest as love will allow” when I explore whatever it is we’re on about, and I can’t explore happiness without talking about grief. I hope that by the end of this Talky Bit, it’ll be a bit clearer why that’s the case.
Come out in person if you can. Personally, I miss you. Collectively, we need to see and be with other humans. I understand that we’ve had experiences that have taught us to fear some aspects of that. I don’t want to denigrate that. I also don’t think it’s a place that healthy people can live in for very long. So, if you are well and able, I would encourage you to kick off your covers and make the trip. If you can’t or choose otherwise, we’ll keep on live streaming. You can find us here at 10:45 a.m. (ish) on Sunday morning.
I’ll see you on Sunday.
Peace,
Tim Plett
