Peoples to person
First the planet produces people
Then some people become persons
Earth peoples to person!

Invitingly curious
We invite and so do well by these nearby representatives of humanity. When invited we choose to accept or not, or something between. Live invitingly. Live acceptingly. Talk. Seek out new inviting ways. Mention your books being written or other deepening projects; ask about theirs; be curious. Invite curiously.

Mirrors in the barbershop
Game designers want to get inside the players’ minds. So too you and your counterpart when you are conversing; but held up to a game, it is bigger, more nuanced, and therefore less knowable. An action even less knowable is what your other has found inside your mind. And more: what they suspect you know of them that they know of you, back through all the mirrors in the barbershop.

Story about your play
Play a game; tell a story about your play for another to hear or read. Your game became a story, your story a conversation, your conversation your life. Together. When you hear such a story and give compliments or thank the teller, you grow a person, you grow your world.
