Campaigning has been a very interesting trip. The most memoroable aspect of
running for select board so far has been finding people standing up along side
me and asking how they can help me gain a seat at the table. Mostly, that's
because I tend to think of myself as a relatively unimportant person. And I am,
even now. Yet my desire to serve the town intersects with a lot of other folks'
desires for their town, and I'm amazed that they see me as someone who can help
them.

Mostly, what that means to me is that this has become a responsibility. Not that
I didn't already know that to a certain degree, but extent to which service is
really responsiblity has fully dawned on me now.
