Today’s photo from the hip comes from Rebecca of The Rebecca Project. Rebecca is an Aussie expat living in San Francisco (although she’s currently relaxing with family back in Sydney). She captured this shot a few blocks from her San Franciscan apartment.
I’ll defer to her to explain the rest…
On this particular day, Union Square was buzzing with activity. It was a drum circle. There were people of all types running and walking around in alternating clockwise and anti-clockwise circles around the monument to the beat; old hippies, random tourists, young earth mamas with babies cradled to their chest, barefooted neo-hippies, regular folk. There was even a woman in a wheelchair participating. Someone on a microphone kept encouraging the participants to be conscious of their breath, their actions, their feelings. “Breathe the wild air!” they kept repeating. It was a frenzy of goodwill, love, positive, energy and acceptance of your fellow humans.”
Thanks, Rebecca!
