-0700<BR>><BR>>Viv-a-Licious --<BR>><BR>>I will miss your vibrant
energy, rich experience, true wisdom and<BR>>sparkling playfulness.
But you will be felt there, in spirit.<BR>><BR>>And so shall you others
who cannot make it this time. I know it is hard<BR>>for some to see
all this chatter about a great experience that you<BR>>cannot this time get
to.<BR>><BR>>I did not get to last year's OSonOS and I missed my dear
friends deeply,<BR>>both old and never-yet-met. I find that the
face-to-face is so<BR>>important, when possible, for deepening connections,
exploring and<BR>>experimenting on things with a group of diverse people (I
tend to try<BR>>things each year that may use different modalities than
text and<BR>>sometimes even without conversation - hard to do in the
virtual world),<BR>>sharing song and wine together in the evenings, and
finding great<BR>>partners for facilitation projects to
come.<BR>><BR>>Well, this time I am going, and so I shall raise a glass
to you, my dear<BR>>friends both old and new and never-yet-met who cannot
join us in Halifax<BR>>in person. Your presence, your spirit and the
stories you have shared<BR>>with us all thus far will be felt in rich and
diverse ways.<BR>><BR>>And I want to take this opportunity to thank all
of you who have<BR>>contributed to this year's Access Queen Fund thus far
(more eruptions of<BR>>Access Giving are expected at the OSonOS itself,
though the Global<BR>>Village Marketplace, the Silent Auction and random
acts of giving-ness,<BR>>and for this, I thank you).<BR>><BR>>As I
write this the Access Queen Fund, thanks to your generous donations<BR>>of
money...<BR>>...(thank you, World Map members! OpenSpace-Online
participants! Open<BR>>Space Institute of the US! Generous individuals with
big hearts and<BR>>anonymous identities! Open Space Institute of Canada!
OSonOS attendees<BR>>who will share their room or pay for dinner for a
colleague! All of you<BR>>packing little things to sell at the Global
Village Marketplace and<BR>>Silent Auction!).<BR>>.rides, room shares,
discount fee arrangements (thank you, host team!)<BR>>and good
ideas...we're helping *15 Askers* get just the little more that<BR>>they
need to be able to attend the OSonOS in Halifax. How exciting
is<BR>>that???!! And what a testament to the power of asking, and of
giving,<BR>>without attachment to outcome. Let's hear it for faith
and sharing and<BR>>courage and letting
go....<BR>><BR>>Lisa<BR>><BR>>___________________________<BR>>L
