questions
We all know the agony of watching too many photos of people’s trips and experiences and the parallel challenge of looking for opportunities to share memories of our own. So, it’s been interesting to wait for the questions about India.
Arvid and Joyce had the most unique and stimulating questions and so they heard the best stories. Selena has been to India many times, so we enjoyed the points where our stories converged and divided. Roger has displayed an amazing ability to hear the same stories over and over and find new interest in them each time.
In all of it, it seems so important to emphasize the very limited taste of India that is my experience and that in the telling I am leaving out many things that are still percolating. Words are important and I don’t want them to mean or represent more than they should.
Those are great questions, Scott. I’m not ready to answer them yet. Except that it felt like when I was in India anything was possible, I could see anything and any way of living and being was possible–ways I couldn’t imagine.
OK – I have been thinking about this for awhile. And I have a lot of questions about India and what it is like. But the questions all really boil down to this: How does Seattle look different when you come back? What do you see about the culture here, that we don’t really see when we are living within it?
Bonnie!
