A small child reaches out for the big person hand and it is not there ........ panic ..... a fear of being lost forever ..... alone ..... no hand - no security - panic ........
Disorder I guess - means little order, in-balance due to a loss of certainty, a loss of security. We all have small snatches of disorder when we step off the gym jogger and the floor does not move - or we step out of a car after a long drive and find the scenery is not moving at 80 mph any more.
Some people suffer from a disorder which is a disability or an illness.
The mind of a child must be stretched when the big person hand is not there ....
When I have to design and run a session with certain objectives - it usually includes a time of fun or interaction which I call a starter.
One method I use amongst other things is non threatening touch. A beautiful way is to have all present to hold out to another a unique finger tip - unique finger print pressed against another. Great to see seven thousand people doing this with both hands outstretched in Prague last summer. Wonder-full in a small group. The largest ever 'group' was thirty thousand. A network of human touch ......
Something wondrous is to reach out a hand in the dark and know that God the big person in our life is waiting with arm outstretched and hand open ready .....
