@grandpacopeland what approaches would work then, in your opinion?

[Karen Sharp @karen_sharp]

Turns out the melody living in my mind for years is a sloppy oversimplification of it. :-( The melody I loved isn't the real thing. (2/2)

[Karen Sharp @karen_sharp]

Agreed to do chapter 3 of Eicha for Tisha b'Av b/c I love the melody for it. Looked up the text, found the sheet music for the melody. (1/2)

Deep feelings this morning.

@KeithKlain @berkun @PennyRed I'm not sure we're actually exorcising them. I think we are massively underestimating their power.

I should hole up in a conference room I suppose.

[Karen Sharp @karen_sharp]

I need to rehearse aloud some thoughts, curriculum content for an upcoming training I'm doing. Self-conscious about doing it at work. :-p

Often you can't solve problems on their own terms. You have to look at underlying narratives and themes.

Autocorrect on my phone just changed "orthursday" without a space, to "at hursday". Wtf is hursday? Ridiculous.

@jamesmarcusbach persistently thinking in terms of remedies may be some contamination in my own thought.

[Karen Sharp @karen_sharp]

@jamesmarcusbach which granted may not serve me or other people making poor choices.

[Karen Sharp @karen_sharp]

@jamesmarcusbach I started off in educational psychology, though. I'm strongly inclined to think in terms of remedies.

[Karen Sharp @karen_sharp]

@jamesmarcusbach it does strengthen one's own choices as well, about who to engage with.

[Karen Sharp @karen_sharp]

@jamesmarcusbach true. And there are many contexts where I just sit tight and pull my punches.

[Karen Sharp @karen_sharp]

@jamesmarcusbach and on the other hand, getting more cynical and saying even if the healing work is possible, it's too much effort & time.
