Little Wonder Falls Earth Ship

Community. Resilience. Support. creativity, expression, safeplace. Friends. Wisdom. Caring. Food. Sustainability. Self-sufficiency. Enoughness.Learning. Togetherness. Respect. Optimism.

These are all words I generate when I think of the communityI wake up to every day. The promise of a community to come. People sharing,caring. Living responsibly for the earth, from the earth. In an ever cyclicalmanner that evolves, continuously replenishes and gives birth to innovativeideas for the change that matters. The change needed to overcome thedestructiveness of our societal impulses. The impulses of consumer obsessionwithout regard to societal, social and environmental impacts. Living in acommunity confronts these impulses. Makes one responsible and aware.
