Yes. Chris C once said that people become like Taoist masters - using the
law to flow in and out along the spectrum of engagement, wrestling with
conflict on contentious issues, or hanging by the coffee table talking
hockey...

Over the years I have seen people go for a smoke, go to church, go to the
beach, play frisbee - and most of the time they have come back and weaved
in their conversations and sometimes they have turned out to be the most

Last week in a little Open Space that has two participants in wheelchairs, we 
said, when describing the law of mobility: if you aren’t in a place where you 
are learning or contributing feel free to walk or roll somewhere where you can. 

The whole Walk and Roll angle was fun.

Turns out wheel chairs can be an advantage… People get out of the way, and if 
your good on two wheels, you can go like hell. I have a nephew who has never 
walked because nothing works below his waist. But that has never slowed him 
down. He makes films and has some marvelous shots from Kabul – racing down  the 
street. Yes … that’s Afghanistan. Folks who are differently abled have spent a

definitely worth while. BUT. Moving the feet is a sure sign of action. Anything

Once I said "the law of two skis." We were 380 people in the ballroom of a
mountain resort on a sunny morning of a professional association
conference.

The big view window showed us the hills glistening with fresh snow. By my
calculation 250 people used that law to be butterflies on the slopes, and
the rest had breakout sessions in the ballroom for the day. Oh well.
Everyone had a great time.

Bhavesh, I usually refer to the  ‘Law of Mobility (I often don’t know in 
advance if any participants will be in wheelchairs), also known as the Law of 
Two Feet’and if you find yourself in a place where you are neither giving 
or receiving, contributing or learningthen take yourself to where you’d 
rather be...

I’ve also needed to acknowledge ‘the Law of Four Hooves’ .yep, on one 
occasion a horse walked right into the middle of the space!  

Whatever comes
