162.0. "Want to join a Discussion Group?" by OMKAR::SANKAR (Arundhati Sankar) Wed Sep 07 1988 14:06

	I met Mikell Anne Roscoe ("Mike" for short) at DEC some years ago. 
	We have some things in common. We both had traditional upbringing, 
	we both rebelled against double standards in our own way in our 
	own spheres using our own "tools". We both raised "kids".
	
	One way we support each other, is by suggesting the other read a 
	book which we found "helpful". We discuss the book and see what 
	we can adopt to our situation. By doing this we are finding
	we are not alone, our conflicts are not unique, and there are 
	others who have solved some of our conflicts in an "acceptable way". 
	We are finding that there are ways to convert "difficult situations" 
	into oppertunities.

	We would like to form a small study group to do what Mike and I have 
	been doing in the past. Mike lives in Chelmsford and is willing to 
	offer her house as a meeting place. We thought we could meet once 
	a month, and discuss a book. This could lead to a good support group, 
	if all goes well. 

    	If any one is interested in joining us, please send me a mail.
	If you are too far to join us, but would like to keep in touch
	let us know. If you found any books helpful, let us know. If you
	have any experience in forming such a group, please share them 
	with us.
