Patience

Hi All,
Lesson of the project for me I am learning in that patience truly is a virtue!
Waiting to hear back from peoples can feel like time is ticking by and that I am going no where fast. But the art of patience is something that is essential in community development. It is a skill not to just jump in and do and organise everything myself (as tempting as this is at times) it is not in the true spirit.

This is not an easy thing to do- but given everything else I am trying to do (2 subjects, a full time job and placement) it is slightly easier to accept as I have so many things on the go at once. I picked this picture cause I am waiting but eternally hopeful (represented by the butterfly wings).

It has given me the time to play further with the blog and be more creative on this level which is great. I have run in to slight trouble with a video I was trying to upload in that it appears not to have saved on the lap top and been wiped from the camera.

Whilst this is a shame- it is like all things a trial and error process. I haven't completely given up I will contact some friends to see if there is any way to recover the files at all. So I have not completely given up- but it is another patience, waiting game process.
MM MM is that my learning (seems to be a re- occurring theme).
I am standing on the edge waiting for that salmon to swim up stream.
