Doug Sends a Video Email



Delighted to introduce you to Doug. We've known of one anothers' work in video for a couple of years, and in that time have had more than a few deep conversations.

Now the conversation gets deeper.

The Harry Harlow clip that's mentioned may be found HERE.

Doug's is a moving statement on the nature of lovelessness.

Emotional abuse. Each time I name it, the thing has less power.

I admire and aspire to his comfort level with the subject matter.

Cruelty begets cruelty.

From what plant comes its seeds?

Rumor has it some of the social services folks have some ongoing cultural expeditions engaged. Look forward to getting the skinny on all of that. Very exciting and innovative thinking going on. Stay tuned.

Do you suppose a layperson could attend conferences on the subject at hand in order to conduct interviews?

My generation missed the benefits of such places and people. It does my heart good to know things change and grow; as have I.
