I have something to share again kaaaa!
The other day, Fulbright and Kasetsart University (through our alum) organized a 3-hour session on 'Storytelling' with our special guest who is our Fulbright alum, living in Germany with her family (she's married to a German Fulbrighter). I felt so good that I couldn't wait for early next week to write kaaa!
1. Fulbright spirit is always high and warm kaaa! Our alum (Joy) at Kaset has tons to do. Yet, she made it possible to have one session as requested. The other (Yong) from Germany offered to do it when visiting home so we learn another skill she's excelled, which has been rooted from her own talent plus time as a journalist and now as a Facebook page owner called, 'เรื่องเล่าจากหย่งศรี'...........ดีต่อใจสุดดดดด! My heart is lifted ka!
2. Storytelling could be simpler than I thought ka....it could start from 'free writing' and then writing with specific topics of one's choice. The first one was a great start for them to jot down without stopping whatever was on our mind..even when the things written could scatter! Immediately, I thought of my daily meditation, only this round, it was expressed in words, not mind. I then realized how storytelling could be a healer ka. Like any other techniques, it needs practice.
3. Amazingly, the kids not only listened attentively (thanks to the fun and interesting presentation Yong gave) but they took it up seriously to write something out within 5 minutes! It was a 'wow' for me loei ka. Several told Yong they planned to do it after that session too ka....one big success of the workshop na ka.
4. Kids have many stories to share but may not have done it in writing. We asked them to get started from our 'card selections', which helped reflect their inner selves with many to express ka. Somehow, I never touched it before during the 'mindsetting' period. I emphasized to them that each and every one of us has some 'scars' or 'complex issues' ..... identify to get over it and move on!...seems it affected quite a few, I guess ka.
5. I forgot to bring some little gifts with me to encourage questions so I offered to read signatures instead...not that inviting....yet.....there was one person whose friend asked me to read it. It turned out that the signature told the person's inner feelings....so clearly that I felt the urge to hug the person and that moment, I heard a sob ka. Hope the little moment was warm ka.
Any reactions mai ka?
