Deadlines
The deadline for the next issue is coming up, so if you want to write a letter, please get it to me this week - by 30th September.
Keith Tudor is editing the next issue on the Person Centred Approach, and we've had some interesting conversations about it. The issue about what is and is not humanistic comes up often. The word has sometimes been called an umbrella, but many people seem to prefer their own, or to get wet!
None of that concerns me particularly - there are far too many labels which divide people, and life is too short for precise definitions and who's in and who's out. I feel the same about 'being human in an inhuman world'. I don't think humanistic people have a monopoly on compassion or humanity.
Hope you're enjoying the last issue - let us know what you thought about Thanissara's article.
Maxine.
