I’m with Lingo, thanks Wayne, and Troxel for a great write. A question - what does context do to Image change? When I was a kid during WWII, there were lots of gold and silver stars in neighbors' windows, and when we would see the car with two uniforms we knew the news they were bringing. I still remember the scream and crying of Mrs. Lacy with the news about David. White people seem to have had a similar image. Racism was normal. When Nixon ended the draft and went to a volunteer military, things really changed. I don’t see any stars in windows and the news does not always publish the names. Right now I don’t know personally of any war casualties. What effect does this have on the image making process? Could this account for the widening sense and varying images that seem to be apparent today? George Holcombe geowanda1@me.com "Whatever the problem, community is the answer.

Dear Wayne,
Thank you so very much for sending me Jim Troxel's profound essay.
Jim's analysis of how we got the trump-bumb in the road to United States elected leadership is deeply helpful to me, and i intend to learn from it, and also to forward it, recommending his teachings and insights to family and friends. I will begin by forwarding this note to my grandson, Yared Lingo, who today is celebrating his 20th birthday at Pamona College in Claremont CA.
Your thoughtfulness in sharing Jim's paper, highlights Jim's extraordinary pulling together of a wisdom with his colleagues and manifests his special skillfulness for interpreting the Institute of Cultural Affair's corporate journey in Imaginal Education methodology.
Jim Troxel's gathering of this collegial wisdom is a huge gift today for me, manifesting as a true 'mind joy'.
So much for celebrating your sharing with me the gift of Jim's clarity! Now, on to my practice of picking up my own bed and walking with improved understanding here in Georgia with the guidance of this bright witness to our opportunity for free responsibility.
May we all be well, Charles

Dear Colleagues,
I am strongly excited about Jim Troxel’s paper, and presenting the paper again because I found it had to find the first time. The title suggests studying the “dark side”, but I had much to learn for the bright side!
By all means, it should be a study paper for Imaginal Education, and available resource for other courses. I think that Jim took a long time putting it all together, and I have great respect and thanks for Jim.
Gratefully, Wayne Ellsworth, Co-Director, ICA JAPAN
