Participation
Participation here does not mean becoming part of a system.
It means carrying a space for a period of time.

Not through special skills.

How Participation Happens
Participation does not arise from planning alone.
Often, what is needed emerges from the situation itself.

A task may be small. Or larger.
Sometimes it is a contribution in music, dance, or creative work.
A conversation.

None of this is higher or more important than the other.
Everything is part of the same space.

and enjoy exchange.
