In the photo beside me taken about 8 years ago is a gentleman I love and have the distinct honor of calling a brother. He helped me remember at one festival over a decade ago an ethos’s I thought I used to live by. Basic life tenants that for so long had helped shape my way thinking but embarrassingly at the time we met had forgotten to practice. One Sunday ten+ years ago he gave me food at our campsite. I was so thankful and humbled! After I had refused to share our supplies with him on Friday, he Without hesitation provided me with a meal when I needed it most. I was reminded, sadly, That i used to be a better human being. I was reminded that at one time I used to believe we should try to treat each other with the utmost peace, love, and respect towards one another whenever we have the opportunity to do so. And in doing so we bond and share in the joys of friendship and community. often missing from today’s busy world. Ironically that Sunday meal would be the first of many amazing meals I would witness him serve for free to hundreds of festival goers also in desperate need of sustenance. It’s a year later than I originally wanted or had the courage to post. But here we are time to come clean. #baconforlife @jaythebaconguy #wedidntstartthefire #plur #charliebrown #lifelessons #hunanityrestored #jdog #omfestival2007 #ogpiratecrew #pirates #codetoliveby #gushing #baconforlife #legend #doinghigherwork #foodforthemassive #thereisnohighercalling #humbled #tbtuesday https://www.instagram.com/p/B3GhjOQghWK/?igshid=1bptppaixtw8s
