re-opening space in myself to accept that where the group is going is not what I
expected--but it is what is needed. And sometime

Dear OS Listers
Recently at Shamabhala Institute in Canada, Nova Scotia, I wrote a rap to
introduce open space.
Thanks for sharing, Tim!
I think your OS-rap is really great. Have you used it for an opening?? I
