Expectations
I’m writing from the Young Adult Friends (YAF) Conference at Earlham College in Richmond, Indiana. This has been (and continues to be) a powerful weekend for me. The only expectation I had when I arrived was that I would be transformed. Okay, so I also expected to see a lot of old f/Friends and make new ones, and I was hoping to spread the word about other future YAF gatherings (actually, I thought that was a key and important reason for my coming here; more on that later), but I showed up with the expectation that I would undergo thorough and dramatic change.
That expectation has been fulfilled, again and again. I look forward to writing more later, but at the moment I’m headed off to our evening program.
