I don?t remember high school being a happy time for me. I just tried to get by without being noticed, always feeling that I did not quite belong, which we all now know is how we are supposed to feel at that age. But I remember times like everyone going down onto the rugby fields on days like Purim and dancing the hora in big circles, and it was a truly amazing thing ? teenage kids with all their angst?s and hang-ups and quirks and confidences and poses, dancing together with a joy of something bigger than themselves ? or so I remember it. And I was one of those kids who stood by and did not join in, but this had stood me in good stead. Because now I facilitate interaction for groups small and large, and of course there are those out there who don?t want to take part ? but I know them ? because they are me, and I?ve been there, and I make it possible for them to get over that inhibition.
