Aphio is a great organization: its ideals are first rate, the people in it are the kind of wonderful folk who somehow have all found each other in this great organization, and there&#8217;s a lot of very positive energy. But somehow, I haven&#8217;t managed to get myself as caught up in it as everyone else. Maybe if I were actually closer to more of the people in it. I feel like I have working relationships more than friendly relationships with everyone. For me, Aphio is a task, not a pleasure. Aphio is not my social circle; it&#8217;s an added obligation for me.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ve met so many great people in Aphio, no question.
