What an amazing experience, did anyone else go to this wonderful celebration of sun, light and laughter? I have been to Stonehenge before many years ago but on Monday night the place came to life. It was rather like travelling back in time to another era. A very Pagan, tribal time that existed before Christianity narrowed ones experience and brought in a very puritanical approach to life.
It was a celebration of life, sensuousnous and spirituallity - a stark contrast with the surrounding area on Salsbury Plain, home to many military establishments. It was an expression of ones individuality and desire for freedom. A positive joy to behold, free from the ever increasing regulation and interference of our nanny state.
I have come away with a more spiritual and less hedonistic attitude to life that can only help me to be a more considerate and less selfish person. A big thank you to my friends that encouraged me to take time off work and make the trip!
