Day 2: Deepening Relationships

Today we opened the space with a collective slam poem harvest from our check-in the night before. We learned that questions may be the most important thing we bring to the room. Not knowing is culturally uncomfortable, and it takes time to craft a question that is not loaded with knowing, or implied answers.  Understanding the purpose of our question is just a start.  Open curiosity dispels the judging mind and invites something new to arise. Intelligence emerges as the system connects to itself in creative ways.
