Back

Last few days of the retreat I was actually able to detach myself from the internet, go me.

Coming back on Sunday was a bit of a culture shock... So many people in the city, and they all look so different. It was weird, I always thought West End was really relaxed and full of nice genuine people... walking down Denman to get lunch on Sunday was unpleasant as the street were full of people in hurry, and everyone looked so, well, artificial. Just proves that it's all relative.

Anyway, the photos of the retreat are all up now, go and check them out if you're interested.

One of the most concrete things I've been trying to keep is the pace. I noticed it the moment I stepped outside, my normal walking pace is much faster than it was back on the mountains. Am I really in so much hurry? I've tried slowing down and I can do it, only it's started raining again which makes it slightly less comfortable. On my first day back at work I had four meetings... four, and I never normally have any. One of them was my yearly review which went extremely well. I don't honestly feel like I'm worth all that praise.

So yeah, I'm definitely experiencing the post-retreat low here. Hopefully it'll just pass in couple of days.
