Community
We all are a part of community. For communities to thrive, they must co-exist harmoniously.
“We are constituted so that simple acts of kindness, such as giving to charity or expressing gratitude, have a positive effect on our long-term moods. The key to the happy life, it seems, is the good life: a life with sustained relationships, challenging work, and connections to community.”
~Paul Bloom
“This world of ours…must avoid becoming a community of dreadful fear and hate, and be, instead, a proud confederation of mutual trust and respect.”
Dwight D. Eisenhower
Given recent events in our community at large, there is a lot of work to do. I invite you this week to continue to invest in community.
