主题: Re: [OSList] Ignited for 2014...
Dear Hulu and Qinghua,

Am I understanding correctly that Ms. Song is thinking of coming to New York to 
share the wonderful stories of Open Space in China. Perhaps I have 
misunderstood as I know this is a very big trip? If so, I apologize. 
If I did understand correctly, and your question was about having an 
interpreter for Ms. Song in New York at International House from January 18-20, 
I would be asking my dear friend Chuni Li for her suggestions. Chuni lives in 
New Jersey, born in Taiwan, speaks Chinese and knows many Chinese people.
What a delight to even dream and imagine such a visit again to America. Having 
Ms. Song  in Florida was such a gift. My only regret was that I was the 
facilitator and that I was not able to be a simple participant enjoying all 
those conversations that Gail speaks of. I had to live them later through the 
many hours of video that I watched and the detailed reports in the book of 
proceedings. I was so moved by the information shared about China, Haiti and 
other places. The passion that I felt and the exchanges and connections that 
happened ran deep as typically happens when we are in Open Space for three 
days. 

I am taking this opportunity to provide the links again for the WOSonOS 2013 
Book of Proceedings plus to the Flipsnack Memory Book which contains many live 
links of interviews including the invitation to go to China for WOSonOS 2015 
(page 38). It was sheer delight watching Ms. Song and Hulu extend their 
personal invitation, many smiles and laughter in their video.
Gail how wonderful that you will be sharing your wisdom about Open Space
in Shanghai at. a 3-day workshop.  It will be such a gift just as it was a gift 
for me to attend my first WOSonOS in Taiwan which you facilitated. I still 
carry the spirit and magic of this gathering inside of me.   

The beginning of a New Year typically invites us to plan for the future. I see 
is also as a time to remember with so much gratitude the special moments of the 
past, reliving those precious times in our heart and mind. That's what happened 
today as I read Hulu and Gail's email.
Thank you,
Suzanne
