Hey ya'll. First-time here saying hello...

Post by hopewalker » Sat Mar 25, 2017 8:10 pm

Hello Burners,

While I may have missed the registration window for Main Sale, after reading through the site, threads, and hearing what BM is all about...I am determined to see you in August! Whoa...the culture, the tribe, the community is calling me. Glad to be here + hoping to see you all later this year.

My kinship to your tribe comes from the fight for my life from addiction I started in 2011. I'm now a woman in long-term recovery and I've built a life on community, love, unity, and service to human kind. Burning Man has called me for years and amazingly I never attended prior to sobriety. Suppose the forces feel I'm better suited to participate in this side of life;)

Thanks for having me with you in the eplaya,

Hopewalker, Welcome to ePlaya. Congrats and good luck on your recovery. Daily struggles make us stronger. Check out anonymous village. In fact there are several camps of 'clean and sober' participants. Read everything you can find. Contact your local burner community. NOW is the time to get involved. See you in the dust.

This will be my first year too, and ODAT I will celebrate 34 years sobriety March 29th this year. I am looking forward to hanging out at Anonymous Village and getting to know new friends in recovery. I also am going with my boyfriend who has 27 years sobriety and this will be his 7th burn (mgb327) I hope to meet you in the dust.

Hey there, welcome to eplaya!

Then I realized that the Lord doesn't work that way so I stole one and asked Him to forgive me
