Draining Brains

Submitted by Anne Dalke on Tue, 08/31/2010 - 10:20pm.

 

We got so caught up in "draining what our brains" thought (without thinking) about "conversation" that we never made it to "evolution" (it'll come...).

How much "acceptance," how much "change" has to happen, to make a conversation satisfying, we wondered? What motivates change? What makes us dig in and resist it?? What helps, what hinders, a conversation from evolving???

So now I'm thinking about this as a creation story. In the beginning was a brain. And it began to drain....
