"WE HAVE DONE IT OURSELVES"

Go to the People;

Live among them;

Love them; Learn from them;

Start from where they are;
Work with them; 
Build on what they have.

But of the best leaders,
When the task is accomplished,

The work completed,

The people all remark:

"We have done this ourselves“

… Lao Tse

Irv Sheffey from the Sierra Club sent this piece by Lao Tse (the author of the Tao de ching) to the OSLIST. May it inspire us! Irv says: "I operate from it in my work with community and I believe it reflects the self-organizing philosophy underpinning OST (open space technology)."  

Then Spark, agreed: "It truly describes what happens from practice of OST. Becomimg a presence of Totaly Present  and Absolutely Invisible!"



Ride the wave :-)!
