thank you from the deepest of my soul for your acknowledgement of my message. It
helped a lot to open my inner Space again. It took a great effort to force
myself out of shock and write my first message. After that I was receeding
again back into shock when your message asking for more information came through
showing that any voice, even mine, counts. I share whatever needs to be
shared if it can help anybody anywhere. And by sharing also help myself to
JUST DO IT! as Harrison Owen exhorts us to do.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=070470417-13092001><FONT face=Arial color=#808080 size=2>This
morning I was supervising at a psychiatric hospital here in Stockholm, Sweden.
The session became something different than what it usually is. It became an
Open Space for sharing whatever needed to be shared. I didn´t do anything to
open it. The need was just there. The space kept closing and opening during
three hours. The feelings of powerlessness made some people utter terrible
things about inmigrants in general, muslims and jews in particular. The space
closed, but opened again in miraculous ways. I don' t get it, but I imagine that
that' s what we are going to see once and again in the months to come.
Responsibility and passion for keeping it open wherever we go is the
task.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
