First, thanks Juanita. Ain’t it the truth?
On the other hand, there’s that 10% . . .
During a month when a brand new possibly nuclear flash point seems to appear daily across this beleagered planet (the latest: India/Pakistan), here are two posts from my deep past that present my deeply held reflections on what is necessary for me to create peace on earth.
The first, documentation of a wild 19-day “Lord of the Flies” raft trip down the Colorado River. What our little group went through then, reminds me of what the entire human race is going through now . . .
The second, an autobiographical quest for peace on earth.
In fact, when I die, and if I have a tombstone, I would like it to say: “She Opened Space.”

I really like the 9 page treatise OPEN SPACE IS A VERB. The last paragraph of page 8 is especially poignant. The whole post gives me a much better understanding of your life journey.
