I cannot believe that week eight is over–time flies! \u00a0I had fun working for Chiwara. \u00a0It was inspiring to interact with approximately 20 people from different backgrounds who came to the Chiwara’s 1-day intensive to learn how to apply permaculture into their lives. \u00a0I enjoy learning about their backgrounds, their perspectives about what is social justice, how to empower Detroit, and their future plans with integrating permaculture into their career and homes. \u00a0I thoroughly enjoy conversing with the people while simultaneously expand my understanding of permaculture, what is social justice and meanings of life. \u00a0One of the members introduce the idea of integrating spirituality into social and political activism, which I found to be interesting. \u00a0I have not thought about promoting mental well-being with activism through gardening, so this idea captivates my thoughts. \u00a0I will further ponder about this idea to see how it can be applied into my life.<\/p>\n

(Please pay attention to the sunflowers in the background. \u00a0They were only sprouting when I started this internship, but now, they are twice as tall as me! I am so proud of them. =] )<\/p>\n

During this past week, I started feeling stress about my time in Detroit. \u00a0There are many places in Detroit that I want to visit and there are still many cultural aspects of Detroit that I have yet to explore. \u00a0I want to visit the Eastern market, bowl at Garden Bowl, eat at Avalon Bakery and many other restaurants. \u00a0With the two weeks I have left in Detroit, I will make it a goal to further explore Detroit.<\/p>\n

Besides worrying about seeing Detroit, I also began to worry about the deadline of my report for Chiwara. \u00a0I know I will have it done but I struggle with effectively articulating my thoughts. \u00a0It is difficult for me to explain my research topic. \u00a0There are many dimensions that complicate how I understand my research topic–I am at a point where I think I know nothing about permaculture and social justice. \u00a0Hopefully, as I finish my carmel macchiato, my writing will flow though.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
