Jesus I'm glad to be back in spiritual Fairfield. I've just been to a several day academic conference on historic American Utopian communal groups. Two days of academic papers presented on twenty minute intervals and a third day post conference. Mostly about governance, culture and economics of communal utopian groups. Was in-the-head way different than Fairfield. In Fairfield the talk everywhere is about spirituality and the spiritual clarity is way different. Really nice folk, but academically they wouldn't (couldn't) touch spirituality as a variable with a ten-foot pole. Where by contrast in Fairfield in any coffee line waiting for expresso spirituality is the talk.
It's really nice to be back to a spiritual community. You can just feel it just driving in. It is such mud out there. -Buck in FF
