If you are part of the group of people who often read this blog, you know that I love my job working with groups.
Even on a weekend or vacation, I think about groups. I notice how people join groups, negotiate groups, replicate old family patterns in groups, leave groups, and change in groups. I notice that some groups are toxic and others promote healing. I realize that there are certain roles that exist in groups (like problem solver, rebel, peacemaker, outsider) and that if one person is not taking a role, another one will.
What groups do you see in my images for today?

Now, would you consider joining the group of people who comment on my blog?
Thanks to all who are part of my groups, including YOU!

I love that you are a part of this group, beth.
In a few minutes, I will set off to join a new, likely transitory, group who gather on Sundays at 11:00 for an hour to protest ICE. So I’m happy to add protest groups to the list I provided earlier. I think those groups will be quite active over the next couple of years.
Thanks for being a part of that important group, Barbara!
