I just wrapped up a site visit for a NYC SysCo client. Now, I’m heading to Brooklyn to talk to the general contractor and Kent about something we need to tweak on the blueprints for the Stop-Gap Housing development. Details… nothing big.
The reason I’m posting is sort of pragmatic. Some people have been wondering about The Agency and what’s going on.
All I can say is that the thing that got us started with all this is back in place. We keep getting little deposits every time we do anything resembling a good turn for someone. Emma volunteered yesterday morning to unpack some boxes. She got $50.00 from Pay It Forward Society a few hours later.
Most of us are getting small gifts for anything we do. Tom, though, since he’s letting us live in his apartments, is getting big money. The three apartments and 8 eight dorms are resulting in him getting rent payments equal to 5 nice Brooklyn apartments.
Of course, that’s not why we’re doing Stop-Gap Housing at all. But it’s nice to be recognized for doing what people in general ought to be doing in the first place.
The gist of this post is to affirm a couple of things.
First, it seems like we are back to where we were last summer after we finally got to NYC. I guess it’s worth mentioning that I time-shifted on June 28, 2024 from the same date in 1984. Skipped 40 years, and all that. Emma showed up on July 4, a few weeks later. So, that Pay It Forward and Random Acts of Kindness that first made us aware of The Agency… Well, it’s back.
Second, there seems to be absolutely no notion that any missions are forthcoming. Paul Charm confessed that he feels forgotten. Having memories merged with the other three versions adds nothing. The 1885 missions group literally spends all their time exercising, reading history, and doing volunteer work.
Paying It Forward…
Well, I’ll wrap up. I’ll be back tomorrow with a very different thought. See you then.
