miguel-jan, doug-jan, kerry-jan and all, salam!
miguel thanks so much for sharing the berlin story. beautiful, simple, and
elegant one! and inspiring.
at the end of may, i am planning on taking part in the Village Building
Convergence in portland, oregon. as i've shared on the list before, i think
village building as a practice is Open Space two point o...and the example you
shared and what happens at the different sites at VBC (in the everyday life of
the sites) is the future and what gives "hope" (whatever that is!).
Doug-jan, in the coming days, i'll be sure to post what the gift circle looked
like, what happened. in the meantime, feel free to join us in your heart (or if
any of you will be in san diego may 9th):

much warmth,

"The truism that we reap only what we sow only goes back as far as agriculture.
Before then, we could reap without sowing: nature was fundamentally provident.
For the hunter-gatherer, the providence of nature requires little labor or
planning, but only an understanding of nature’s patterns. Primitive
survival is a matter of intimacy and not control.."
-- Charles Eisenstein, Ascent of Humanity
