everyone who knows me knows I loved this story..even if they had some challenges getting used to it! If we have no patience to listen, how do we move forward?

"A group of about two dozen senators began meeting late last week in the office of Sen. Susan Collins (R-Maine) to try brokering a deal that would avert a shutdown, and they kept talking after it began. “To try and keep the peace, Collins wouldn't let any senator in the room talk unless they were holding a ‘talking stick’ — which a senator in the room described as a ‘ceremonial Native American stick’ that Collins owned,” Politico reports. “At one point, Sen. Lamar Alexander of Tennessee forcefully tossed the stick toward Sen. Mark Warner of Virginia after Warner interrupted him, nearly shattering a glass elephant belonging to Collins, according to two people briefed on the throw. After that incident, Collins suggested using a small rubber ball, and Alexander also brought his own basketball ‘because it’d be safer than a stick,’ an aide said.”

I am thinking about how I found purpose in my life. Purpose has always been important to me. Something inside of me has paid attention to what matters to me and what I am drawn to. Most times it has been necessary to turn away from convention in order to feed this yearning. It has been a long intuitive path. I have learned a few things from success and failure.

My work to clarify my own direction has led to the development of a workshop, Against the Current, that I am currently offering with the added creative writing skills of my close friend and ally, Mary Tinucci. If this is a question that resonates with you and you would value a group process to explore, please join us!

"White supremacy is not some natural evolution, nor did it occur by happenstance. White folks *murdered* people for this thing that we often call “White privilege”; it was bought and paid for by blood and terror. White supremacy is not some benign invisible knapsack." ~ R.L. Stephens II on October 1, 2013

10 years ago I took a personal and professional leap to commit to a notion that practices of collaborative leadership are not only where I want to apply myself, they are timely for the work we are doing in every setting. I have not been sorry. I have had the honor and opportunity to learn from the many issues and inspired leaders I have encountered along the way. The times we are in create many opportunities for important, even critical transformations. This is not a time for reaction, or retreat. As you lift up the place and role conversation can hold in transformation, let me know if FullThought can be of assistance.

Thought for the day, John Trudell on politics:
"For decades my identity was political, but I've come to understand that there's no political solution when you're dealing with someone else's rules... All politics to me – Indian or white – is an illusion preventing us from being authentic because we're communicating through something that isn't real to us."

"The human heart is the first home of democracy. It is where we embrace our questions. Can we be equitable? Can we listen with our whole beings, not just our minds. and offer our attention rather than our opinions? And do we have enough resolve in our hearts to act courageously, relentlessly, without giving up - ever - trusting our fellow citizens to join with us in our determined pursuit of a living democracy?" -Terry Tempest Williams
