Going with the Flow
We haven’t had running water for two days, but I don’t really mind. I like having to fill buckets with water from the spigot outside, and lug them inside to wash dished and take bucket showers. It’s refreshing. I came here to challenge myself. I came here to get away from what was convenient. I had grown so used to just running to the nearest Duane Reade whenever I needed anything in New York. Now, it’s really nice to rely on my own inner strength and ability to go with the flow. It’s nice to rely on myself and not on a drug store I can find every few blocks.
