At a recent convening on democracy organized by TED, I ran into old friends, met new people and did a lot of listening. I didn’t have a speaking role, and I wasn’t trying to raise money. But to be honest, I felt awkward when I first walked into the room. What would my role be? What was I even doing at an event “just as an attendee”?
"...learning, listening, supporting, or resting". Wonderful!
