After the Quake
I'd like the ATD global community to know that we Japanese facilitators are forwarding through light and shadow. Living this paradox is the challenge of our time, and it is embodying our Blessed Unrest.
Despite the scars of that big horrible quake, and feeling the pain in their heart, eight people stood up as change agents and were trained as ATD facilitators in Megamiyama, Nagano Japan May 13-15. Their blessed unrest brought them to this training.
Shake Up and Wake Up
Though the class size was small, I feel an emergence of a community. The people who came to the training were totally ready to move forward as change agents. Their training tribe name is *E.Quakers*. The *E* stands for Eco, Earth, Eight, and so forth. Like this name shows, they are going to shake up and wake up people in Japan.
Thank you for TPA and the global ATD community keeping a warm eye on us. We ATD facilitators in Japan are still groping our way in darkness, but one thing is for sure; we are moving forward.
We also would like to inform you that numbers of movement in various sectors are taking place all around Japan not only to revive but to imagine and create new Japan. We feel connected to all the Pachamama families around the world. Stay connected.
