Your thoughts on the geographic move and all it entails apply in the larger context to change in general. Its scary. Its hard. Its trying. But its also glorious. Its new opportunities. Its exciting in the best way possible, like just before that first date with that someone you hope is really special. And that is what makes us grow, in the ways we knew we wanted to and in some ways we didn’t want to but needed to.

As a NOLA resident for 35 yrs, I’m glad to call you neighbor. Here’s to a 2010 in New Orleans that is full of wonder, ideas, challenges, highs and even a few lows. B/c as you say, that’s life, and I’ll take mine straight up.

First of all: Love that shirt!!

So it sounds like NOLA was calling you home all along. Yes change is always scary, but in a new place, with new friends, and new opportunities, you’ll find a new family to help you along the way.

Sloane – You have inspired me in countless ways. Your courage & your willingness to go through the difficult/scary patches in the hopes of finding something far greater and more meaningful on the other side is…very powerful.

And the folks in LA? We’ll just have to manage without you & be inspired from afar.

Sounds like you made a good decision for where you are right now, Sloane. It’s a great place to be grounded (and how ’bout dem Saints?), plus we still have you in the virtual world. Best of luck!

Congratulations, Sloane, on making the move. Big step and a great one. Hey, would love your feedback on my thoughts on moving forward in 2010, and what activists should be looking at: http://www.postcarbon.org/blog-post/51667-reflecting-on-copenhagen-activism-is-dead

You may totally disagree, and that may well be what I need to better shape my perspective. No rush, just curious.

Hoorah to you!!

Thanks Micah! That means a lot. I don’t know if I had thought about life in that way. The “world was my home for a year” way. I like that a lot.

It makes perfect sense in a YOU kind of way. Which I totally get. So basically yeah go Micah too!
