I think I'm over draping this thought with carefully considered criticism to show how aware I am of its faults: I fucking love burning man.
I also typically reject the idea that I'm going there to worship anything other than awesomeness, but in a way I think I'm going this year to worship adversity. In one particular way it's a really hard time in my life, and I think persevering through white outs, heat, and wind sounds fucking fantastic right now.
Earlier today I wrote
Sorry to everyone else, but: bring it, playa.
Weather is adversity I can fight.
Weather is adversity we fight together.
Weather survival - and finding enjoyment in the fight - is how we say "No! I don't give up! you can't beat me!".
I'm good at it, and in a way that is exactly what I need.
That does almost sound like worship, in some way or another.
or maybe I'm just really hungry. which I also am.
