Connections

Hi,
Wow, what a great email Ann.  I think if we can do this with one another, intead of the segmenting of one another, our society would be so much more alive and vital.  The psychodramatic society I mean.

One comment to John and the ASGPP Council.
Seems we are a a juncture in our organizations's life.

I had this dream of having 2 hours together; not this rushed time.  TWO HOURS at a town meeting; like the one's we have here in Massachusetts after the last major snow, often in March.  People gather, bring food to share and spend about 3 or 4 hours talking one at a time addressing the group about their dreams for the town and its growth and humanity.  Very moving.

Wish we could do that.

Ed
