Thank you Gerardo,

We love you too.  Barry and I were wondering if you saw this photo.
It seems to get kicked out all the time.
Here's a link:

>> *Greetings!*

>> It is time for us to gather and to honor Harrison Owen; to share stories
>> and to express our love for him and each other.
>>
>> Two weeks have gone by since he died on March 16th, 2024.
>>
>> Such sadness and grief we have all felt and are still feeling.
>>
>> The expressions of love and gratitude from around the world for Harrison
>> have been overflowing; the stories of Open Space moving and inspirational.
>> In planning this upcoming virtual gathering, Barry Owen carried the Open

>> rushing too fast in setting a time and place for us all to meet. It's how
>> it is when we sit in a giant circle, with lots of space in the middle,
>> writing and announcing our topics. It's what people have done, head and
>> heart, with such passion and emotion.
>>
>> Barry also reminded us in the planning: “to not work too hard”.  It’s
>> what dad would have wanted, he said.
>>
>> So, he, I and others, have waited until NOW, until the right time to
>> invite everyone. Day by day, the pieces for this future reunion came
>> together.
>>
>> Why not create a Virtual Gathering that has the spirit of Camden by the
>> Sea? Back then, Harrison would simply rent a space, tell people where and
>> when, and that was it. The stories from those days live on, beautiful
>> memories of Camden Maine, the place that Harrison called home to the very
>> end.
>>
>> We then called Lucas Cioffi at QiqoChat. Can you help us? We wanted to
>> take a minimalist approach. As always, Lucas was quick to support our ideas.
>>
>> Together we imagined the Law of Two Feet in action with multiple Zoom
>> breakout areas for conversations and blank spaces to write notes and post
>> pictures. Nothing more. No formal facilitation or hosting, just us,
>> welcoming each other together, holding, and opening more and more space.
>> Trusting this beautiful process of Open Space that is so much more.
>>
>> Harrison’s presence would be felt, as our official facilitator. After
>> all, he’s already opened the space for us and is holding it still while
>> napping along the way.
>>
>> The date of the gathering came to us in a flash. Why not April 8th to
>> get this started, on the day of the Solar Eclipse. There seemed to be such
>> significance to that date, as if a cosmic inspiration, the 8th day of
>> the 4th month of 2024. Harrison at age 88 being the pure expression of
>> an infinity symbol. And indeed engaging 8 billion people in meaningful
>> conversations is a timeless endeavor.
>>
>> We also decided that there would only be a start time (10 AM, Eastern
>> Time), no end time, again in the spirit of Open Space “when it’s over it’s
>> over” which implies that life in Open Space will never be over.
>>
>> The intent is that people from around the globe will flow in and out, on
>> their own time zones for a day or two or more. As for every closing circle,
>> it will be over when it’s over.
>>
>> Everyone is invited: Harrison’s family and friends, our global Open Space
>> community and so many other colleagues and friends from around the world.
>>
>> *Please help us spread the word ~ everywhere, anywhere and in any way.*
>>
>> With love,
>> Barry, Suzanne, Lucas, and many others
