Name: Let's have lunch at CIRCA in Foggy Bottom!
Start: 2025-11-16T18:00:00.000Z
Location: Circa Foggy Bottom

\*\*\*This event will be permanently shifting to the new Mighty Networks platform. Please sign up at https://community.fff50.org/share/znq8E4YpVT3ofBCz?utm_source=manual and search events for "Together in Silence" each weekday morning\*\*\*

Note: There is a password required to join this Zoom - the password is **silence**

Come sit in group silence to meditate, contemplate or whatever calls you.

Structure (shown in minutes past the hour since there are different time zones)

* :00 Please enter our space muted. As much as we like to be friendly and acknowledge each other, please do so with a smile and wait until 20 mins past the hour for any speaking.
* :01 Sit in silence and stillness for 15 minutes. Leaving your camera on is encouraged unless you know you cannot be reasonably still (e.g., if you are moving about or eating breakfast please turn your camera off while doing so)
* :16 Coming back, we continue in silence for a few more minutes. We encourage you to turn your camera on unless you know you can't be reasonably still.
* :20 Optional sharing of individual reflections on today's silence that contribute to the group's purpose. For instance: “I tried a new prompt where the only thing to think about is ‘I wonder what my next thought will be’ and it was really helpful” or “I started out feeling very distracted by the birds my roof, but I was able to reframe the irritation into an appreciation of how wonderful It is to be this close to nature” or “I hadn't done a body scan meditation in a while and I forgot how powerful it can be.”
* :25 Optional casual conversation begins (feel free to stay and chat for as long as you want.)

A few reminders:

1. Please mute yourself when you join - we will begin the silence at 10:01 ET / 7:01am PT.
2. We have received feedback that it's preferred to sit quietly before the actual 15 mins start, so when you join, please refrain from "chit chat".
3. After the 15 mins are up, we will let everyone know (so you don't need to keep track of time yourself).
4. If you need to drop off early, feel free to just exit the Zoom (no need to let us know.)

Get it Done!

Left leaning politics are a focus.
I know that having Chinese food every week may be boring to some people, but here are the reasons why I'm keeping this location:

* Free parking
* Reasonably priced
* Separate checks
* A really nice conference room
* Great location
* More new people from other parts of the city
* 10 minutes from Brentwood in the middle of the day.

The salads are good, or come and just have tea if you don't want Chinese food.

Political discussions are allowed - moderate to liberal.

Let's have lunch together at the highly-rated CIRCA restaurant just steps away from the Foggy Bottom metro station!

Enjoy small plates, a full meal, cocktails or whatever you'd like best on a Sunday afternoon. According to Google Maps it isn't busy around 1 pm on Sundays. Maybe we can even sit on the patio!

Of course, great conversation, laughs and in-person social time with great FFF>50 friends is the best part!

Please include your cell number with your RSVP so we can be sure to meet up. Hope to see you!
