The Space

Today is the third day of the Process Lab and sparks have started flying. I became aware today of "labels" given to me by people ranging from 'chauvanist' to 'connected', optimist, intellectual, supportive, rigid, egoist, image conscious, rebel, ignorant, demanding and arrogant. I feel somehow that after the afternoon session where the facilitators left the group, there has been the start of a trust building in the space. I still feel that some individuals are tentative about the whole process. One thing that became clear to myself was that i talk a lot about father because of the habit of mother in my childhood after father's death of sharing her problems with us. I am happy that i do not feel any discomfort in talking about things very sacred and personal to me within the space. I think i see the beginning of hope in this process lab this day in regard to trust building in the group.
