<br>Selves—goes itself; ''myself'' it speaks and spells,

You are receiving this invitation because someone wants to see you at [[Seed2009]]. [[Seed2009]] is a retreat and [[OpenSpace]] event hosted by members and friends of the [[SolSeedMovement]].
The theme question for the event is: '''What does it mean to "Bring Life" to each of us, to all of us, and to the entire galaxy?''' What gives you life? What gives life to the communities you care about? How can we notice this life-giving in our daily lives and create the conditions for more of that to happen?
