ASTONISHING

I just arrived home from my first Bioneers in San Rafael. I'm nearly sixty. As a leadership consultant and life coach, I've been to a lot of conferences and conventions. This was a unique and ASTONISHING experience. The weaving together of so many perspectives into a single tapistry was ASTONISHING--young, middle-aged and elder, white, black, brown and yellow, first peoples and immigrants, science, religion, mythology, poetry, dance...new and old wisdoms. The level of openness, consciousness and conscience was ASTONISHING. It was almost too much to bear...like sunlight refracting through a thousand different colored crystals. With so much to process at the end of each day, it was difficult to sleep each night...but I've never been so willing to give up my normal comfortable patterns to receive such an ASTONISHING infusion of knowledge,
wisdom, different threads of life experience, hope and inspiration. Thank you Kenny and Nina...what great souls you are...and thanks to all who contributed in front of and behind the curtain. Continue the ASTONISHING weaving...and we may just bind the world back together. Bob Kamm, San Luis Obispo, CA


Weaving

I just want to add my congratulations to those of the previous poster for the successful weaving of ages, races and concerns at Bioneers this year. Lots of people and organizations WANT to weave young people, and/or people of color, into what they are doing, but Bioneers has really made it a priority and done what it takes to manifest that desire. I was absolutely stunned by the beautiful diversity of faces in the crowd, and thrilled by the vitality and energy of the youth. Great work!!!
