Since arriving here we have been meeting all sorts of people. Through our hosts, Scott and Melissa, we have begun creating a network of folks that we see from time to time, and they, in turn, are introducing us to other people that they know and so it goes. But sometimes people meet us.
Take this morning for example. Gail and I were sitting at the Coffee Gallery enjoying some web time when a woman came up to Gail and asked about her iPad. One thing lead to another and we talked for about 20 minutes and she made several introductions of passer-bys to us in the process. And so it goes... When all was said and done, we have a new acquaintance that we will be seeing again on Saturday at a festival, and as is the way, I'm sure it will lead to even more introductions.
I guess what I am trying to get at is that things work out. We knew one person here at the North Shore (Andrew, pictured above with Gail at Duke's), now we know about 10. If we open ourselves to opportunities, then more times than not, they present themselves to us. The key is to trust in ourselves and take comfort in knowing that it will work out. That has been our philosophy - it always has, and it always will!
Trust in yourself in doing something brave today. It's a great feeling!
Take care and enjoy,
