Intentional
and Unintentional Communities
www.sacredlifeboats.com/build-lifeboat.html
Last year we launched an ambitious experimental project called In My Village
(link here soon) which grew quickly to 380 people then as quickly disintegrated.
We learned some powerful lessons. The most significant was that we can't build
community! We discovered that we can form small circles of people who learn
to love and trust each other. And if these circles get to know, love and trust
each other we discover it feels like community. I've come to call these circles
archetypal family unity. They are the basis of community, historically and
everywhere.
