Hello list!<br>
We had a very nice, not to say wonderful, stammtisch in Uppsala.
Because of you Raffi I brought my camera - and, then, because of me, I
forgot to take any pictures! We were five persons, with an interesting
diversity. When it comes to generations - one was my 19 years old
daughter, now a student. Not arriving with me, coming out of her own
free will!<br>
<br>
I don´t know if anyone noticed, but I announced the first Uppsala
stammtisch just a few days before the date, 5 september. It was an
impulse, but an impulse I had been pregnant with for a longer time
then. Of course I got scared...and of course, I had good reason! A few
people mailed me, public or not, telling me that they appreciated the
initiative, but unfortunately they could not do it with this short...I
understood, and still I hoped that somebody would have the time and
energy. <br>
<br>
I showed up, right time and place - and nobody else. I struggled.
Practiced. Practiced the principles, the law, the self-empathy (from
Non Violent Communication) , the "<i>I feel a little embarrased and
vulnerable, and I know that partly it is my grandious Self playing with
me, and that I should be acceptant and that I am not ridiculous at all,
but ......!!!!</i>" - and then came my PARTICIPANT, a little late, all
the way from Stockholm!!! (Thank you, Joachim, I don´t think you are on
this list yet.) And I shared it, and we had a nice time.<br>
<br>
And now, after the second time I really feel that a stammtischspace is
on its way - as a raft on a river. If I didn´t knew better I would now
quote from a swedish poet...<br>
<br>
Things like this gives me inspiration and trust. And wings, so today I
came into a very fast inner decision process (again!) which ended up in
my registration for PoP in Berlin in the end of november. <br>

Now it is time again! On monday 7 november at Katalin 19.00. Katalin is
a nice pub close to Uppsala station. It takes 40 - 50 minutes with
train or bus from Stockholm central station. My mobilenumber is 0046
(0)70 687 00 95, my home number 0046 (0)18 32 16 14. This is the second
stammtisch in Uppsala, and I have reasons to believe we will be more
then two persons (as we were the first time...).
