Research is Ceremony

"Stories go in circles. They don't go in straight lines. It helps if you listen in circles because there are stories inside and between stories, and finding your way through them is as easy and as hard as finding your way home.  Part of finding is getting lost, and when you are lost you start to open up and listen."   Shawn Wilson quoting Terry Tafoya on page 6.
