Yes, I visited that Art walk. Very soft and friendly people in Fairfield generally without the hard aggressive edge found so many other places in that country. What many here seems to not get is that it's possible to be softspoken, kind AND successful. The whole notion so prefferred by posters like the Turq and others here that aggression is a mark of being integrated in the world will have to go and replaced by a new generation of souls. The lack of ability to adjust to the new energies coming into the world is the saddest part of witnessing this great transformation. Sadly it's only natural that many will cling to old forms and patterns.
