13. Country Fair

Community, celebration, belonging

Summon the strength to reach out and discover the unity of community around you.

Country fairs are a great way to get out of your day-to-day routine to connect with your community, learn or try new things or celebrate a cultural bond with like minds. It’s easy to feel as though you’re alone when you’re hiding in your home without the benefit of human interaction, but when you get out into the world you might discover how many people are available to you, waiting to be a support network for you and your dreams and challenges.

It’s a fundamental human need to desire community and a sense of belonging. To be part of something greater than yourself makes life feel shared and easier to manage and goes a long way towards the feeling of acceptance, but you can’t wait at home and expect the community to find you. You have to go out and seek the people who are waiting to support you and welcome you with open arms. Taking the initiative to connect with others, both socially and emotionally, will open your spirit and send out a beacon to those who are meant for you. Whether you’re looking for help in starting a business or finding a friend or lover, being brave enough to be vulnerable with others is the path towards gaining the acceptance you’re seeking. It’s okay to experiment and change course as you learn more about yourself and what brings you joy and fulfillment. Don’t be afraid to put up boundaries with those who do not provide a feeling of emotional safety or take a risk when you feel the presence of a kindred soul. Building community is an ongoing process of refinement, moving closer to or further away from people who represent you and your ideas.
