September 2010 — True Community
Our planned move to Southern California is taking longer than we expected, so for this month's article, we'd like to revisit the concept of "True Community."
In light of the many debates and demonstrations of concern for a religious group who wants to open a new center in New York City, and talks starting again in the Middle East, we hope that reasonable people can find ways in their heart and their minds to know that peace is possible in our world.
It takes maturity and perseverance and insight to look at our own "stuff" — our personal imprinting, our beliefs about other people and our personal "stories" of who is right or wrong — then decide to make peace something we are willing to make some small effort to attain.
What you and I and our families and our friends and our neighbors do in a peaceful way on a daily basis will collectively help us move closer to peace. If we can do that, it will grow until more people can see that peaceful living is much preferable to constant warfare over issues that don't matter nearly as much as the people in our own lives.
Therefore, we'd like our readers to read our November 2007 articles on True Community and think about what is really important to you this month.
