Meeting of tribes
“Get whole system in room”. Who knows what/who the whole system is? The
Universal Field, that’s who. That’s why you do your best to 1. invite the
maximum diversity AND 2. honor/welcome the stranger. The stranger(s) are
the gifts from the Universal Field. Again...many examples at Spirited Work!
That’s how we got our money issues straightened out. A “new” participant
knew what to do & took responsibility for doing it! That’s one of MANY
examples that happened.
