To everyone - best wishes
... for a happy, peaceful time with your family, friends and colleagues as this year draws to a close.
As a caring community of practitioner researchers, let's work together to support one another so
that conviviality never again means "I want to work with you and you and you, but I exclude you!"
Life is too short and far too precious to say I can NEVER work with you again - that's just pathetic!
I have been thinking about our metaphor of the hedgehog - it doesn't work for me. I have never
met an assertive hedgehog who is adamant that hurtful discrimination in a research community
must end so that we live out more than the rhetoric of convivial values - maybe I have lived too
sheltered a life! My hope for the future is we'll share a wholehearted commitment to collaborate.
May you enjoy whatever celebration this time of year brings you,
Warm regards to all,
Sarah
