Carol, Tova and my OS friends, My mind's eye sees millions of butterflies releasing hope to our brothers and sisters there who are crossing borders of their inner world.

It's a privilege for me to have the opportunity to spread my message to you and all those who care about the future of the peoples here or any people who live under conflict. I truly feel touched by the powerful feedbacks and readiness to start acting and making a difference on the ground. Open Space has been my guide all these years thanks to Harrison, Tova and Avner who showed me the way it works 10 years ago. I found it to be one of the most powerful and insightful tools I ever used to facilitate meaningful dialogues, to plan activities and to engage in deep work processes among the conflicting groups. I don't write usually to the group to inform them about the OS work here but be sure that OS is very popular now among the many many groups and organizations I work with. In my TEDx talk I spoke briefly about working with these groups but my main focus in was on to show the way how people can move from talking to acting by brining live examples from Israelis and Palestinians I work with. I focused on bringing their experiences of crossing the emotional and physical borders which often humans put to protect themselves from the other. I have brought my personal story of crossing borders and knowing all the "other" who is different.. As you all, practicing OS for the past 10 years have contributed tremendously in my work with conflict groups, towards more understanding and trusting the "other", to move from dialoguing to the acting even in the most unknown and unfamiliar situations, it helped me to support the activists part in each one of the participants of these groups. There are many examples and stories that I wish to write to you but for now I would like to thank you all for the years of practice, of sharing your wisdom with me and for making a difference. Thank you!
