I'm trying to answer a pm from a member who is thinking of going to Montreal.
Honestly, I think all of you could do a much better job.
The question is what is Montreal all about.
I answered that for me I would be going without any expectations, just looking forward to seeing a beautiful city I would never otherwise visit, connecting with other members who I feel I've made a bond with through these forums, and to have a good time. BUT, within all that activity, there is something else that happens. Something deeper, personal, soothing, validating, and strengthening. It isn't frightening, orchestrated, or uncomfortable. It just feels good! I know I will leave Montreal feeling different then when I arrived.
I think this gathering is going to be something different for everyone. I think you all could answer the pm better by explaining why you made the decision to go. What is "it" to you?
My question to all of you is:
WHY ARE YOU GOING TO MONTREAL?
