Harrison, I may not be responding to many OSlist messages these days but I wouldn't miss this thread for anything!
Thank you, Harrison, for the many, many gifts you've given to me and to us. A short list of your gifts to me: - your love and support - your irascible humor - your partnership in wonderful gatherings like the Practice of Peace and Leadership in a Self-organizing World A short list of your gifts to us all: - Open Space itself - your teachings in your books and the fabulous 5-CD set (which OSI-US is in the process of making downloadable) called Understanding Open Space - the idea for the Open Space Institutes And the lessons I learned from you that are at the heart of my practice: * generosity of spirit (Open Space is free for the taking. the only responsibility is to give back - share what you learn) * focus on the essence (all the rest is details) * simplicity of design (what's one less thing to do and still be whole and complete?) * inclusion/invitation (welcome the stranger) Open Space changed my life. And through it, so have you. Much love to you, my friend, Peggy _________________________________ Peggy Holman [email protected] 15347 SE 49th Place Bellevue, WA 98006 425-746-6274 www.peggyholman.com www.journalismthatmatters.org Engaging Emergence: Turning Upheaval into Opportunity "An angel told me that the only way to step into the fire and not get burnt, is to become the fire". -- Drew Dellinger On Dec 2, 2010, at 7:21 AM, Christine Whitney Sanchez wrote: > Harrison, > > I am grateful that you took birth, that you gave birth to Open Space and that > we met along the way. > > Suzanne, please send your dad warm birthday wishes from Arizona! > > Love, > > Christine > > Christine Whitney Sanchez > CWS - Collaborative Wisdom & Strategy > 2717 E.
