Would we feel a little more secure living in community?

Last week I received an email from a friend:

“My first 2 week stint in Jakarta provided the new opportunity to experience 2 earthquakes (one of them 7.5 on the Richter and we were on the 10th floor - a bit scary and led me to consider the possibility of my death - that was interesting); ........ the week before I was in Bali, there was another earthquake on that island. And the day I was leaving to come back to Indonesia we had the dust storm in Sydney with my daughter waking me at 6.00am to ask if the world was ending!”

If such events happen while I am living in our ecovillage/community, I could debrief all this during ‘happy hour’ with my community and perhaps we could tap into the ‘wisdom of our group’ when ideas and solutions are required. Right now, I am pondering this alone and a little shaky in the office of my single family home, thinking that I must share this with Dave when he gets home from work.

The joy and power of sharing a vision, holiday and research project with my daughter

Today I arrived home after 3 weeks in the US staying with my daughter and son-in-law. For a week of that time Margo and I tripped around on a research trip. Read more here.

I can’t believe the rejuvenation, I feel returning to Oz.....there is little sweeter for me right now than the joy, power, insights, knowledge and perspective gained in sharing all this with a young woman who is as passionate about this ecovillage project as I am......Nothing’s gonna stop us now!
