Drift Assesment 2

Q: Describe, with details, two situations during Drift 1 and/or 2 in which you felt unusually peaceful, at ease, or contemplative

A: Hours into my first drift I remember sitting down for the first time in a couple of hours. The air outside was cold but the sun was around and brightened my mood about the whole drift affair. Sitting on a bench in a park I wasn’t cold, nor restless or tired. Spring was in the air and I chose a good day to welcome it. The sounds of the environment around me echoed in my headphones. It was at ease feeling that assured me that spring was on its way.
The second drift involved contemplative situations throughout its complete duration. Thoughts such as, “Should I trust this person and sleep on his/her floor or should I sleep in the truck” or “We’re almost home, everyone is passed out dead or sick, should I drive without a license?” Being on a long drift across unfamiliar locations sparked long thoughtful periods, many kept to myself and others expressed freely with band-mates. The thoughts weren’t one sided either, I also thought of the situation we posed in peoples homes or basement shows. Should two groups of strangers trust each other?
