Hi all--
Harrison asked, Paul helped, and I finally found time to post our
conversation on this topic (and the one on taking naps, which I felt related

Really, really, really nice question!
It has had me thinking for a few days, as well as avidly reading the other
posts which have been striking enough chords to keep a lot of guitars

Here's one perspective which affected me today:

Oh man...I love it when Paul weighs in with PURPOSE. That's great stuff.
For me, living in open space is about notincing the spots in everyday
life where space is opening, like Tenneson says, and opening them a
little more. I'm using a lot of "What if" questions these days to do
that.
But I do

Tenneson--
We're learning, in recent years, to put some space around things instead of
always rushing from one to the next. Just a stop for coffee after a meeting,
to pay attention to what is stirred in us, is often all that is required to
make the day more spacious and reflective.

Hello to All.
My name is Tenneson. I am sitting in the stillness of a Utah morning, enjoying

Thank you Doug for this question. Of the many areas of practice any of us could

and meaning (The Law of Two Feet) and reminding myself of whatever one of
the four principles is relevant when things come up. I also practice fluent

Hi--
There has been over the years and across the continents a thread to many of
our conversations here about living in open space.
A new year is a good time to examine our lives anew. What does living in
open space mean to you? How do you bring it to your daily life?
