Hi Doug,<br>
<br>
It may be too late, but...<br>
<br>
At some events (I've never done it for closing an Open Space) I've had
people write a letter to themselves about the experience and what they
are inspired to do, recommending that they finish with a personal note
to themselves with encouraging words - what might they want to hear
from this energized self that is writing the letter. It helps to bring
envelopes so they can self address them. And after 3 or 4 weeks, I pick
up a stack (usually a fraction of the total) and take them to the post.
A week later I take another stack, and so on until the letters have all
been sent. - A big - <b>Thank You!</b> - to Gregg Levoy for this
wonderful idea. see <a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated"
href="http://www.gregglevoy.com">www.gregglevoy.com</a> to learn more
about he and his
incredibly wonderful book <i>Callings: Finding and Following an
Authentic Life</i>.<br>
<br>
This process helps to extend the event into the future, and is also a
great way to build in reflection at the end of an event and a second
chance for reflection (and possibly action) after the event has
formally ended.<br>
<br>
with grace and love,
<br>

<pre wrap="">Hi--
This comes to you from the OSonOSinUS in San Antone.
The weather is fantastic, and the conversations are
even greater.
Today Sheila Isaakson did a wonderful job of opening
and closing the space for our first day. Tomorrow I am
set to open and close.
The question: Sheila used the closing she and I
learned from Harrison and others: everybody stand,
look around the circle to meet each others' eyes, turn
around in place, take one step out with these
wonderful people behind you.
So as to give people a taste of something different, I
am hoping you can give me ideas of other closings that
have worked well for you....
Thanks!
