& Open Space..<BR><BR><FONT size=2>Hi Anne, <BR><BR>Sitting here on my porch
which ( lucky woman that I am) overlooks the Clark <BR>Fork River,reflecting on
our conversation a few minutes ago and Papa Osprey ( <BR>he has a nest down the
way) ran reconaissance by the eddy to check on the <BR>fishing. He was
gliding on the various air currents with no apparent effort <BR>AND no apparent
direction...kind of traversing the random and somewhat <BR>chaotic currents up
there... Then he froze and did a dead fall drop from <BR>50ft to pull a
trout ( I think) out to take home to mom and the kids down the <BR>way.
Hm-m-m-m, much less random than I thought... <BR><BR>Made me think about how
important it is for us to be able to glide on the <BR>creative currents that we
each can bring to a process. Like the Osprey, we <BR>need some open space
in order to spread our wings wide enough to capture <BR>those currents!
<BR><BR><BR>Warmest regards, <BR><BR><BR>Annie
