... last blog of the day as I have returned from my workshop to the wi-fi IT centre here in Norway to dump all my bags.

I feel ............. (how do you?) ............. not the failure of yesterday. I worked hard to turn the direction of the workshop, from yesterdays discomfort, to a better experience for the punters so also for me. Amazed, I was, that they all turned up for another dose of Road Less traveled. Today I was much more active with them. Much more ice breaking and much more sensitive to the languages. Lots of tools for benefit today and as a 'take away' for tomorrows leadership.

I feel god about all the workshops today. The lonely experience came in the evening yesterday. Worse because I was tired and had not eaten. Tonight will be better I hope coz I am meeting Pete after the big gig and going for as meal together.

Think I will be offline tomorrow because all the gigs are in the main town centre.

I have said how I feel.
Some of what I have done.
But not what I think ............... eer.

I think that - I get asked to go to places home and abroad to do Training and experiential things but never get asked by Greenbelt to do anything like that. Why is that?
The reason why I thought that is;
I have decided that people at Festivals are so high that they are not in touch with real life, rightly so, so that they are reluctant to clock their more 'dark' feelings. When I ask people to do homework re sensitivity/feelings/interactions/put downs/etc ........ they cannot do 'homework' because they are not at home. So better to do other stuff methinks.

Next workshop is about 'connecting to the world issues'. Hmmm
Need to do some prep. I know where ~I am about all this but HAVE to be where they are at. I will not know who 'they' are until they show up for the gig. Good job I have the 'blob world' and the 'blob hand' and .......... What the hell else do I have to help communicate across cultures .................?

God so loved ..............................................................
