Wow, this arrived at exactly the right time! I am seeking to open safe spaces here in the US as our new President Elect comes into power next weekend. We are in dire need to spaces to share compassionate conversation openly to begin to heal the deep divide present here. There is so much fear and misunderstanding at the root of it all and I firmly believe that if we gather together first in small groups and simply listen to each other, we will find common ground as human beings. First we need to validate what is underneath many of the fears and I believe that is many people feel unheard, not of value and as if they don't matter. thank you so much for exactly what I needed to read to help me move one steep closer to planning this out as a tour across the US in my car. I've already started reaching out to people in my friends list. I would love to reach out and connect more about this. I can be reached at storytellerkp@gmail.com thanks so much! Hugs from my heart to yours! Kristin
