Maybe next year I can come...

yes, it's always next year. Always next year.

like they say - 'Jam tomorrow'

[Bring4th_Austin]

It has taken me a few days to process the weekend, which I think is about normal for Homecoming. Last year, I didn't know what to expect, and I was blown away by what I experienced. In my life, I had not ever had the chance to interact with even one person on the same wave-length as me (spiritually). Being thrust into a huge group of people beaming with the brightest light and the warmest love was intense and it caught me off-guard. It was surreal, intense, and when it was over, I crashed.

This year was different for me in many ways, mainly being the fact that I knew what to expect. And those expectations were high. I thought a few times, "What if I'm disappointed because it won't be such a new thing for me this time?" Well, expectations were definitely met and it was every bit the amazing weekend I was hoping for and more. Except this time around, it wasn't such a sharp vivid experience, and there was no crash afterwards. I was sad to see people leave thinking that I might not see them again til next year at best. But this year, I am still uplifted by the sheer amazingness of the people that come to Homecoming, and how deep and meaningful, yet light and fun each interaction is. In lieu of any "after Homecoming blues" I would expect to experience is just a sheer appreciation of everything and everyone about the weekend. It was freaking amazing.

It was hot, humid, and stuffy. Breezes were few and far between. But that didn't damper spirits at all. Saturday, just like last year, the skies opened up and rain poured after lunch as we struggled to keep the presentations going while protecting the electronics and make sure the presenters could be heard. Saturday night, while we were at dinner, a massive MASSIVE storm rolled through and blew down the tent. Water accumulated on top and the strong winds caused the large poles supporting the canopy to bend all different directions, and managed to snap one right in half. This ended up being one of those "blessings in disguise." GLB called the company we rented it from and a man just happened to be in the office late on a Saturday night. He came out to survey the damage and, even though they aren't normally open on Sunday, managed to get a crew together to come and replace the bent poles and restore the tent. This wasn't done by the time we were scheduled to start on Sunday, but we simply shifted the circle a bit to another part of the yard, amidst one of Jim's beautifully landscaped flower and stone gardens, which ended up being a perfect and amazing setting for the morning's presentations.

I could probably write a book about how much I love and appreciate everyone who traveled from near and far to be there and share their light. It was great to meet a couple B4thers who I hadn't met before and see the old friends who feel like family. It was an all around spectacular and thoroughly exhausting weekend.

[Lycen]

Duh derpy me .p I had not considered that the energies where yet to settle as it was a long weekend just a few days a go. Sorry for being inconsiderate!

Ah I do enjoy MASSIVE storms, I am glad it worked out for ya all there
Thanks for sharing Austin!

[Unbound]

Homecoming: Pooping butt centaurs back and forth on f*** Mountain. FOREVER.

By that, I mean it was amazing and one of the biggest experiences of release and freeing of the mind in my life to date. Thank you all so much for the sharing of that experience, I love you all.

[Lycen]

Thanks, Lycen, for the compatability patch information.

My pleasure!

Wow what was written in those presentations, was quite.. "IN YOUR FACE" like .p
Unease was present when reading it at times. But I enjoyed it, had a useful effect I think.

What was described in there feels like what I am waiting or in sentry for. A time where people need even more active beings of light. I dream of happiness and harmony, but this has a place in my psyche as well.

Just my thoughts

Thank you once again Eccles

[Unbound]

I am definitely going to have to do some serious processing before I can really put together and share my experiences. Too much has happened on so many levels this weekend that words won't really adequately describe the transformation I have been going through.

Yes, Lycen, I believe that the 12D Founders' words and my ENTJ presentation style can be blunt at times; however, if the messages in any way help a seeker in his or her journey to 4th--and possibly 5th--density during the next two decades, I believe it will have been worth the viewing.

[Brittany]

I'm with Tanner...there was just so much. So much feeling. I'm not sure I could get it all into words. I feel like a totally and completely different person. So, so many old, pent up blockages were removed and it's like realizing I had a hundred pound weight on my chest my entire life that is suddenly gone and I can breathe so much easier.

I will say that sharing a dwelling space with my dear brother Tanner was an enlightening experience all around. My expectations, though high, were thoroughly exceeded.

The monsoon on Saturday was an electrifying experience. It was as if even the skies couldn't contain themselves in the face of such a powerful love energy.

Austin, you must be more evolved than me because I'm still getting withdrawals. It's always so sad seeing everyone go after such a brief and beautiful explosion of light. We have GOT to get the meditations going again!

Also, pie, ice cream, butt centaurs and f*** mountain.

Or I'm just in denial that it's over

Here is a link to an album I created of all my homecoming photos. I didn't name or tag anyone, but if anyone sees a photo of themselves they want removed, just let me know.

Lol, you got a shot of me making enemies with Chloe-e

[Brittany]

I'm still surprised she didn't latch onto your face in a violent hissy fit.

Thank you for taking so many pics Brittany. It made me feel like I was there. I experienced such a mix of emotions by just looking into the eyes of so many bright faces. I definitely have to make it next year

Btw, I noticed a ton of faces that I don't recognize from here. Did people attend who aren't active on the site or maybe they just haven't posted a pic yet that I remember?

By the way, I noticed a ton of faces that I don't recognize from here. Did people attend who aren't active on the site or maybe they just haven't posted a pic yet that I remember?

In most years, Homecomers predominately are those who do not participate in Bring4th. This year there were more Bring4thers than I have seen before. There is a large community of people who follow the Law of One and LLResearch, who never interact on the Bring4th discussion board.

I've tried for years to get the two communities to overlap, with little success.

Thank you for taking so many pics Brittany. It made me feel like I was there. I experienced such a mix of emotions by just looking into the eyes of so many bright faces.

I agree whole-heartedly! What Amazing energy! Thank you so much for sharing those pics! *Big Love*

that is strangely self-effacing

[Bat]

The pictures look great, looks like everybody had a good time. Maybe one day i will come along , although i am not sure how well i would fit in,

I wouldn't worry about fitting in. If I was able to fit in (being as awkward / bad at small talk as I am) at last years homecoming, I can't imagine anyone worse than me at fitting in. Everyone is super understanding and nice. Plus the 'hug orgy' at the end breaks down any awkward barrier.

[Brittany]

No one escapes the orgy.

[Hototo]

No one escapes the orgy.

Oh HUG orgy. Now that was an awkward 1-5 seconds of reading thread from end to beginning.

LOL. Freudian misreading?

[Eddie]

Tanner--please remember to forward on the information about that music you played for us.

[GentleReckoning]

Sharing some magical moments with Austin and Alex (I think? Correct me if I'm wrong)...

Yes, I have not forgotten! I have just been resettling back home and planning the email I am going to send out, expect details soon!

P.S. That is Sam and Austin aha

wait, wut?



I thought we had moved beyond race ...

[kycahi]

Thank you Brittany for the pictures. They brought back memories of last year's people and the place. I already began my focus on being there next year.

[AnthroHeart]

I couldn't make it this year because in December I was in jail for something I did while influenced by my schizophrenia. And I haven't had my hearing yet, so I can't travel until after that. I pray that all goes well with it. At least I have a therapist to vouch for me, and I see him monthly.
