For the first time in more than a week, I was alone in the tea house. We have typically had four or so participants per meeting, and it was an interesting experience to sit there by myself listening to the crickets in Rieul. I let my thoughts roam and wondered about what may be lying ahead in the weeks and months ahead. Perhaps it might be fun to have weekly meetings on special topics, or perhaps individuals giving short informal talks. Many options. But for the time being, it seems most natural to let these daily sessions unfold.
