Hallo Elena, I hope you get through with the OS because it is such a wonderful method to help people create their own world. My reflection of your letter is that isn´t it funny that people are so like each other everywhere in the world. There are always those who say they don´t like the method but I feel the point is they are scared of getting what they think is their own power, reduced. They have not yet seen that a position build on relations, which will be the case if they make space for people to move on, is so much stronger than a position build on control. I have this discussion before almost every OSmeeting and that is with people who works with liberal adult education in Sweden. This fear of losing control is everywhere and I can have a hard time with that too. Still I hope you get your large OSmeetings, that would be wonderful.
But there is also one thought: What will come afterwards? That is important to know so you can tell the participants before they start. People I know are tired of having nice discussions and then they think something will move on afterwards.They want to know if someone taking care of the issues afterwards or if they are allowed to do it themselves.
