Ella es F25 yo F29. El otro día tuvimos una conversación bastante tranquila donde ella me dijo que estaba dispuesta en trabajar la confianza para crear una amistad saludable. Sin embargo ya la conversación me descolocó. Lo primero es que no me pidió perdón en ningún momento por el daño que ella me había hecho y que el inicio de la conversación fue empezar acusándome de que me bloqueó por miedo porque según ella yo le dije que le quería pegar (algo que podría prometer ante Dios que jamás he dicho), yo le dije que yo no dije eso en ningún momento y ella simplemente me ignoró y siguió insistiendo en que sí lo había hecho. No Tengo nada que reprochar porque mi consciencia está tranquila al saber que no lo dije.

Aún así después de asegurar que se alejó de mi por miedo dijo que quería trabajar la confianza para construir una relación saludable y según ella cerrar esa puerta del pasado, también me dejó caer que quería tener buena relación con todos sus amigos y examigos en general.

Yo le dije que para no darle una respuesta impulsiva lo pensaría tranquilamente en mi casa y le escribiría para darle la respuesta de si estoy dispuesta a volverlo a intentar o no. Mirándome a mí se que unos de mis problemas es que yo no tengo amigos y ella si tenía y todo empezó a ir mal entre nosotras porque ella pasaba la mayor parte del tiempo hablando con sus amigos y dejándome a mí en un segundo plano.

Estoy entre 3 opciones:

\- Decirle que si estoy dispuesta a intentarlo y esperar a que sea ella la que avance ya que nuestra separación comenzó porque era yo la única que hablaba.

\- Decirle que no no estoy dispuesta a intentarlo porque realmente no tengo la fuerza de soportar volver a quedar en un segundo plano.

\- No decirle nada, dejarla sin respuesta.

¿Que debería hacer?

I just had a thought. What if we all dressed up in our best peace gear over the weekend, at all the celebrations.
You know, like wear lots of peace signs and things.

It’s easy for me, I already have several costumes in this theme over the years. I make the peace signs from pipe cleaners and attach them various places,

Once i was a “man o peace” jelly fish, by hanging a bunch from an umbrella with streamers

I have definitely seen some other people with peace costumes so I think there have got to be others..

Another idea I’ve used before is “power of love” superheroes.

I think I’m going to be a variation on that, with my captain america t-shirt and red superhero gloves. Maybe stick on a few pipe cleaner peace signs and hearts.

I also already have a sign from past protests that lists off a bunch of solutions.

I can update with more later, I’m outside touching grass and want to get off the phone. I just wanted to get it out and see what people thought of the idea. If you like it feel free to share! It would be so awesome if it caught on. And a ton of people did it everywhere

My name is David, I'm a 23 year old filmmaker from Amsterdam.

I'm currently working on a series of documentary style videos where I explore unique communities and alternative ways of life. I recently returned from the US and Mexico, where I documented car dwellers in California and explored Santa Muerte in Mexico.

The Rainbow Gathering has been on my list for a long time, and this year I'm planning to visit the European Gathering. I've been reading a lot beforehand and I understand that filming isn't appreciated by everyone.

I completely respect that, which is why I'm reaching out here first. I know there are already documentaries about Rainbow Gatherings. Still, I have my own very human and personal way of telling stories, and I feel that the Rainbow Family is still largely unknown to a Dutch audience.

That's why I believe there's still value in making this project. I'm looking for people who would be open to sharing their story on camera, and I'm also looking for someone who might be willing to guide me a little during the gathering.

On previous projects I always worked with someone from the community, which helped me approach people respectfully and avoid stepping on anyone's toes.

If you'd like to get to know me first, I'd be more than happy to have a call before the gathering. Much love, and hopefully see you all in Spain. 🌈

I'm 21 years old and been a punk for a while but over the years I kinda figured that doing lots of amphetamines, drinking lots of alcohol and smoking isn't good for me and the environment and I have only love to give, not hate. The last years I wasn't able to work much due to depression and social anxiety, even long after being clean. I know I'm not a hippie for a long time and this might be a lot to ask but I would love if somebody could make a miracle happen. Tysm sincerely Tobi

People who frequent raves, hippie communes, and illegal gatherings. I remember a friend giving me a calendar that had backpacker meetups, hippie trips, and other illegal activities. And parties, but I can't find it. Does anyone know where these parties or venues are organized? Does this calendar actually exist? We're drawn to the alternative scene and these kinds of events. Where can we find information about this type of thing? I see a lot of people who have this lifestyle, and they're artistic. Is there a website or something that lists these kinds of places?
