Well, I'm back in London again.
And tomorrow Year 3 at Lispa begins. I'll be doing the pedagogical year, observing the Initiation Course classes and reflecting on them with the teachers and my colleagues in the third year.
I've decided to try to develop some of this Lispa-type experience for non-actors, especially people in midlife and older. I think there's a lot here for anyone trying to creatively reimagine themselves. And what else, after all, is midlife all about? I also think that in midlife and, I imagine, in the years following--this period of life that we live both backwards (in reflection on past experience) and forward (with knowledge that time is more limited now)--a Lispa kind of approach can be very helpful in integrating in a new way the people we are and have been.
I know that sounds a bit vague yet. It probably always needs to so as not to be too narrowly defined. But I'm here to get a better understanding of it myself.
Thus, I'm back in London again.
