Which for me is a thought or concept that I want to explore, so I think we are traveling down similar roads. Now the idea of a "project: may be a bunch of tasks to package what I have experienced with a series (to date), such as into a book. Or to have an invitation to present a workshop and I have a "project" to develop the powerpoint presentation. I guess that I find myself working on themes & concepts and I am trying to understand them, and myself, better by placing a few more labels, such as a "series" on them. I also now seem to understand better the inherent danger of limiting myself with those same labels.
