I think you may have the sequence out of order.<BR>
<BR>
Not engaging is, in my opinion, is not something "to let go of"; I think it's more something not to fall back into.<BR>
<BR>
I open space for people, in part, because I've learned that intervening is not effective intervention.<BR>
<BR>
So I stay out and let nature take its course. Either I believe in self-organization or I employ old habits.<BR>
