Nugget's Triumph

Bill Kennedy

[Burning Briefs] • In this video, playa newbie Bill Kennedy is cynical about the purported magic of the Burning Man Festival, but a synchronistic run-in on Fate St., "a heroic dose of mushrooms," a dance with Rosario Dawson, and the improbable triumph of veteran Burner Nugget change his mind.

I'm not sure which BM stories I love the most; Old Uncle Burner stories or the First Year New Burner stories. 2006 was my first year as well, and I can so relate to Bill's exuberance.

I believe in magic

I met Bill at this event in a bizarre uncoordinated synchronistic happenstance. His story was the first of many but definitely left us laughing about the crazy wisdom of nugget for weeks. If you ever get the chance to see Bill speak, please do.

Did you get any inkling wny Nugget was being worshipped? That's a supremely odd synchronicity, Bill...

I mean, not him precisely, but the Nuggets of the world are everywhere... and it's too sweet to hear of his unlikely (or was it?) triumph.

I've been discovering that when you go anywhere, playa or otherwise, and let go of all the rules, walls, judgments, and expectations that bind and restrict possibility, synchronicities and "magic" start accumulating lickety-split. Here's to creating the openness inside of us that creates unbounded possibility wherever we are.
