I guess we all make mistakes sometimes. I brought a Zoom recorder, and Lav and a Beta57a, but I didn't use any of them for a short debrief after our performance. And of course our Camera's phantom power switch got switched off in the case. So I have video, but not audio of the discussion.
I asked if anyone had responses to the performing of the drawing of lines in the sand, and I think everyone felt some connection, to each other, to widows in Iraq, to the bystanders at the beach. Matt said that at first he was thinking of widows being older women, but that after a while it dawned on him that many of the widows in Iraq are young, probably his age. I think Sarah concurred. Jaber said that it was true and that the widows came in all ages and having different economic status, and that it was very difficult, for them and their children.
We also talked about how at times we were concentrating on the counting of the lines, but how it eventually became more of a meditation. Jabur said that he was thinking about the faces of women he worked with in Iraq, and the promises he made to help them. He has hope that together we can make a difference for these women. He said that he had trouble not tearing up.
We all felt that this was moving, worthwhile and should be expanded.
