think`

How do I get people to think about their own situation? I might be faulted here for assuming that they do not, so let me try to re-frame. How do I inspire people to think about some particular situations that might be impacting their lives? Again, I could be faulted here by asking how do I know so much about what impacts their lives? My doctorate degree tells me......Ah...this is difficult. Anyway, we will go into that in a later phase. How do I get my daughter to think? By involving her in a play, a game, a contest, something she is interested in (why is she interested? because it gets her some tangible/ intangible reward, benefit..) and by her participation in the exercise (for lack of better word!!), by her engagement she is driven to thought. I did not do anything here, I just used my so called "expertise" to invent a game/ an exercise/ provide the necessary resources because I have them. Compare this to the child reporters process in Koraput. What did we do in the CR process? We provided resources, were at hand to listen, to respond if someone reached out and asked them to think and write. Keeping questions (who are we ask them etc..) aside, if we can provide resources (no questions asked), be around whenever someone reaches out, inspire with our selves, then maybe people can engage at various levels, engage with different levels of consciousness, ask questions that were never asked before.......inspire themselves.....will this also bring social change...?
