the OST-Healing Metaphor...

[chris weaver]

two more thoughts along these lines:

the language of a homeopathic intervention, or a "dose" of what ails us, is
problematic.  it seems that the system reveals what ails it from within - it
is in no way an outside intervention - and calibrates the internal dose with
great care (as the person hesitates to give language to the dead moose and
then finally does, digging deeper than ever to find words that are both
honest and responsible...)

and...what is a vaccine?  a big dose of not what ails us but what might ail
us in the future?  a very tricky undertaking, seems to me...

just meandering...
