Emails To and From Thailand : a Dialogue Between Friends

Dr. Lindsay Falvey

Abstract

Hello my old friend. I hope all is well. We have had such engaging conversations over the decades, and I thought I might try to initiate a correspondence by email. Your comments on what I have said and written have been the most insightful I have received and caused me to deepen my thoughts. This is something for which I am always grateful - talking to you is almost like talking with my other-self. You are probably one of the few people that has read all my books. My writing has been an exercise to clarify my thoughts; I've been quite candid about this. So now, in this email, I'm doing the same thing in suggesting a means to clarify further my thoughts. It’s an ongoing process - at the conclusion of each book I feel I have clarified what I set out to, and then gradually that seems like just another stepping-stone to my next thoughts and questions. This doesn’t worry me, but it shows me the importance of continuous searching. So, my motivation in suggesting we open an email communication is somewhat selfish. If it's a burden just forget it. If it could be interesting and useful – I leave how it might work to you. No obligations!
