A New Revolution Begins
It began with one single, powerfully awesome word. START. And the call was heard by a band of trusted souls, ones who had walked the road and seen the power of community. Ones who had witnessed fear taken down like a dragon with an excalibre. Because there be dragons out there. And the trusted souls wanted new voyagers to feel confident with machete and passport in-hand and an adventure of epic proportions ahead. And so they got to work, hammering and chiseling and crafting a place where stories were told. There was a language school full of #STARTjargon, a map to every room in the #STARTexp, and tale upon tale of the legends of the community. The trusted souls called themselves the Midwives of the START Revolution, and they were founded on one principle: “To surrender to something that is bigger than you, has always been bigger than you, will always be bigger than you.” ~Jon Acuff because every movement needs revolutionaries to ensure its survival… The Midwives were many, and each served a role in the creation of FrankenSTART. There were storytellers and technicians, imagemakers and mastercrafters. And there were the ones who stood and cheered for all that was happening – and was to come. The ones who led knew they were serving a greater good. The ones who stayed knew they were seeing history being changed. There was a story to share with the world. YOURS. And even when things turned all about, and those in the community became Dreamers & Builders, the greater good remained. And the world learned of the community. It truly did become a revolution. And now, it’s time for a new revolution to begin. Yours. The Midwives of the START Revolution encourage you to dream, to build, to find your hustle and change this world for the better. We have been honored to be part of the creation and life of FrankenSTART, and even more honored to have been able to serve you well. FrankenSTART remains as a monument to those who said “yes” to adventure, who came as strangers and remained as friends and learned the importance of community. It reminds us all that we are altogether powerful when we are all together. And when we punch fear in the face, we are awesome.
