Coffee and Meetings

I went for coffee this morning.

It was an interesting experience. I paid $1 for a black coffee, sat outside, and watched two (seemingly) different worlds go by. There were mostly well-dressed people rushing to work, and homeless? people ambling along the footpath chatting to their mates sitting near me. Some of my fellow customers bought breakfast too - weetbix, cornflakes or chocolate gateau.

I think I preferred the lower-income way of doing Monday mornings.

We had our weekly (so far) 'throw ideas about community around' meeting tonight. I was sad to find that one of the main points on the agenda was 'should we be holding these meetings anymore?' Man... they've been inspiring and encouraging me to get in there and do something. Maybe the meetings seem a lot less important to people who're already working together and in the Valley. To me they've been an important connecting point. But hey... I'm not everyone, right?
