I miss adventure camp. I wonder if it's going to be another of those things that are fun while they lasted but don't really mean anything other than a fun period of time after it's passed. I doubt that'll be the case for bel's class, cause they risked a lot opening up, and such things cause a sense of closeness that don't go away in a jiffy. And I wonder if it'll have been better for my class if more people were there so the others don't feel so outnumbered and became less reserved.
The thing about such camps is that unless you open up, there's nothing you take back from it but memories. And while memories are what sustains you when the going gets tough, it's the bonds between people that would help prevent the going from getting too tough in the first place. And these bonds don't come by unless you take the risk and open up. I didn't take that risk at the beginning of the year cause I was scared. And now I highly doubt I'll ever be comfortable enough to go to a lot of people in my class when I'm in need of help, and I know this was because I didn't want to get out of that comfort zone earlier on.
And there in that camp you see all these
amazing people who have the courage and inner strength to bare themselves to the world, and bel you're really lucky to have these classmates who trust in you so much.
And bel you chose right. He's one of those that the more you interact with him the more you realize what an amazing person he is.
I WANT TO BE AT YOUR WEDDING, I announce gleefully.
Lots of love,
Lich.
