Was at the young adults retreat over the weekend. We caught the fireworks at the Esplanade and it was well worth squeezing thru the crowd and waiting for it. Only felt that the firworks were too random in no particular order. And at the end, they just fired out whatever pattern they had for the finale. Kindda funny the way they just fired away. Anyway glad to be there to watch it this year with new friends and before we started the program for the night.

The retreat was a good time to bond all the yound adults.. from the really young ones to the not so young ones. Only rant was that the location could be in a better place. Living in a hostel with other international students, and also sheets that look dubious were quite arghh... Livable but.. well I ran off after the 2nd day :P

But it's been a long time since I had the time to sit down with some of them to catch up and just know how they are doing in their lives. A time of connecting, sharing lives and even dreams. I think many of them needed that, the friendships, the support, knowing that there are people who are running the race with them.

I know I need that too...
