Applying Sculting Work

last weekend, i have a outstation work
which my organization had draw out a program
inviting all the juvenile delinquent teenagers with parents
to join the family retreat

i had stolen some time to do a family sculpting
applying the sculpting work technique

there is a volunteer from a father, he is arond mid 50s
he volunteer himself to do this
so, i ask him to become the director, to choose his "replacement"
then, ask him to pick up, who is the participant be his father, mother, siblings, wife, and children

then, a father, a mother, 7 siblings, which include 6 brother and 1 sister
a wife, 4 children, 2 daughter and 2 son

he is placing himself in centre, wife at his left hand, with 2 children left and right

then, the father and the mother  was standing far away at the room corner with one brother
another one is siblings by his side, and 3 at his back~

when he is done. i can see the tears inside the eyes
i asked: WHAT YOU WOULD LIKE TO SAY TO YOUR FAMILY
NOW, THEY ARE HERE...

He stop, he can't say anywords....
but after 10 seconds, he come out with a words " I LOVE YOU ALL"
I THEN, asked all the 'family members" of HIM, to say back " WE LOVE YOU TOO"

applying Dramatic Role-Playing is novice for me...
i am npt sure whether i am doing it correct?
but, i am giving it a try~ sculpting family  Work~

30.10.10: TUODRP-II

i attended TUODRP at Disted on 30.10.10
This round, my superior and one of my new colleague from Butterworth join too
i gain some new experience and knowledge on the role playing part
i think i am quite cognitive person, always love to think a lot
role playing allowed me to stay connected with creative imagination in contact with my own personal unconscious and look at my shadow side.
sometimes,  i am wonder, what archetype i am presenting?

the sharing of Healer VS Wounder is new concept to me
but it is quite similar with transference -and -counter-transference of own value impose to client
counsellor or therapist should work as catalyst and work towards therapeutic goals
this is kind of interesting to me
but HOW? how to do so? i wonder

Alex said i had expended my creativity mind
am i? am i still tangible and static
can i remove myself from that be more flexible?
i guess i am expanding
the "Letting Go" and "follow the flow"

previously, i can't really pretend
i have self belief - pretend is hypocrite
i do not want myself to be hypocrite person
when i asked myself on WHAT MIGHT THAT BE ABOUT
then, i got my own answer,

i am trying to learn - imposed new value, remove old stigma
role playing is not hypocrite 
it is about having fun and experiencing different character
from here, i can let go myself better

hopefully, i can bring the role-playing into my work
and benefit with the community i am serving
