Hey,
The big show has closed its curtains. The experience was riveting.
I\u2019ve got to say, while reading my first blog-post I could practically see the words jumping out of the screen with excitement – rightfully so.
I think I came in DCERP with a lot of good ideas about what a community is. For a final perspective on that, I\u2019ll say community is like family. I feel that I can choose my family, and I can also choose to stay close to those who came naturally to me. Just like a community, I can choose to open myself up to a group of people, and I can choose to stay connected with those I have an organic connection with. I\u2019m really glad I got to be in community with DCERP and all it entails.
May our paths cross again soon \ud83d\ude42
