Craft Forms 2016
As the weekend comes to a close, and we are on the road to return home, I am much more full than when we left (in more ways than one!). We arrived in Philadelphia a couple of days early to take in some of the city life and museums before moving on to the Craft Forms festivities. As we walked downtown in Philadelphia, we observed and interacted with many faces, from all walks of life, from all parts of the world. We talked with our children about what a fine line it is that exists between us all, how we are all interconnected, and of how each and every person we encountered was full of stories, family histories, and lifetimes of experience, as well as unknown gifts, talents, and treasures. It is sobering to be made so keenly aware of one’s privilege and basic good luck in life, and left us all contemplating how best to make a difference in the suffering of this world.
