I am still in Norway but leave later today ....... it has been a large experience. I have been stretching myself to be the best I can be - the best I can become.
I am yearning to become.
I am a human being
and more important
A human becoming .......
I have contributed to this conference alongside 130 or so humans who have give so much ....... and, in that, .............. received.
In giving we receive.
I need to reflect - I have the stirrings in my gut. I feel the need to dig in my soul and reflect upon the experiences as an English, only, speaker midst a conference of Norwegian speakers.
I tried to capture all the debates - not just my inputs and other snippets in English. I had beautiful humans translating for me - how do they do this?
I struggle with English!
My expectations of the conference were as a human with no language skills (I only have two languages -English and Body).
Would I feel alone - would I feel isolated?
Would I feel trapped in a strange land?
My expectations helped me to 'feel' these occasions. Feel them and acknowledge them. "Here I am Pip Wilson - in a group of humans who are 'full-on' conversing in strange tongues - here I am with feelings about it ......" and I felt those feelings and felt good in them.
Most times there was a swing. They, the majority, included me by speaking English .... I am eternally grateful for that.
Including the minorities is a massive principle and, on this occasion - I was the receiver and blessed ...............
Lots of the new friends I have made, have asked for samples of the resources I used at the conference. Especially the visuals.
I will post some of them HERE on this blog over the next 2 weeks.
They can then be printed or copied for your private use - they are copyrighted so they are never placed on the internet or sent by email.
I will delete them from this blog after two weeks.
A pretty big list of books and tools available (download or books/posters) is
available here.
Got to go ..... more later ....
you are beautiful
remember ...........
