So my first thought was “participate,” because I’m drawn to being a part of things… vibrant things… But then that seemed too passive, or maybe too much like a joiner. While I love to participate and, more emphatically, hate to miss out, I would not consider myself a joiner. That led me to the word “engage,” which is a nice idea. And I think it implies a more active stance than participate. However! If I’m totally honest with myself I must admit a tendency to disengage in certain situations (particularly emotional ones, er, ahem). So. I’m going to go with “discover.” Because you have to engage to discover, and discovery is pretty essential for a Jill Of All Trades like myself. “Discover” also reflects my curious-monkey-mind, which is precisely the thing that propels me into endeavors like The Petri Project.
