My lovely Lisa: In some way this was a hidden upercut that you gave it to me direct to my face, that for a minute or so it seems that let me knock out. Or more properly, it was a big knock that you gave to me with your magic wand, my dear fairy godmother. I'm so grateful and proud for being the first recipient of the Brian Bainbridge Memorial Scholarship, and all what it means for me. Thanks very much to Viv McWaters and to all the members of the Open Space Institute of Australia. In my very passionate conversations with Brendan McKeague during the event in Berlin, I try to catch up the best of this marvelous person that isn't more with us in this world. Believe me that it is a great challenge for me to try to represent to him at least in a very subtle manner. I hope from now on I will be at the tall of the circumstances, and don't disappoint all of you. My commitment is very big in that precise sense. Namasté, Juan Luis
-----Mensaje original----- De: OSLIST [mailto:[email protected]] En nombre de Lisa Heft Enviado el: jueves, 20 de mayo de 2010 0:56 Para: [email protected] Asunto: [OSLIST] Congratulations - Brian Bainbridge Memorial Scholar for WOSonOS 2010 A deep bow and congratulations to the recipient of the Brian Bainbridge Memorial Scholarship, which this year was originated and given to help a deserving Open Space facilitator attend the World Open Space on Open Space: Juan Luis Walker of Chile! (It was a surprise to Juan Luis when we began the WOSonOS - and I was able to announce it on behalf of the worldwide Open Space community at the opening celebration evening. The other surprise is that he happened to be sitting in the circle right next to the participants from Australia - which was emotionally quite moving). In concert with Viv McWaters representing the Open Space Institute of Australia, Juan Luis was selected because of his extensive and dedicated work creating Spanish language resources, hosting a Spanish speakers group on the Open Space World Community Ning site, and welcoming and inviting Open Space learners, facilitators and enthusiasts who speak Spanish across the world. A deep bow also to you generous souls in the Open Space world community who donated to create this scholarship in Brian's honor. Brian was passionate about sharing Open Space across the world, and we know that he is twinkling up there, Lisa * * ========================================================== [email protected] ------------------------------ To subscribe, unsubscribe, change your options, view the archives of [email protected]: http://listserv.boisestate.edu/archives/oslist.html To learn about OpenSpaceEmailLists and OSLIST FAQs: http://www.openspaceworld.org/oslist * * ========================================================== [email protected] ------------------------------ To subscribe, unsubscribe, change your options, view the archives of [email protected]: http://listserv.boisestate.edu/archives/oslist.html To learn about OpenSpaceEmailLists and OSLIST FAQs: http://www.openspaceworld.org/oslist
