Guest guest Posted May 1, 2008 Report Share Posted May 1, 2008 VERY WELL SAID DEREK!!! I do like your community idea... and have often thought of the same idea... however, I don't live in the country. It's not that I will sit here, wait and do nothing... it more about the fact of the reality cards I'm dealt. There's not much I CAN do, really. So why fret over it? Financially... my family and I are pretty much stuck here (for now)... so we would have to deal with what comes our way... with appreciation for the life, love and lessons we've experienced so far. Maybe doors will open... maybe they won't. But I will trust that everything is happening as it should. That I am where I am... because that is where I'm needed and meant to be. The only thing my heart really aches for... is my children. All our little ones. All that they will have to witness and go through with or without us.... should we make it through the turbulent times that certainly lie ahead for all of us. ~Kerrie wrote: Hummm....I say hummmm.

Guest guest Posted May 1, 2008 Report Share Posted May 1, 2008 That's a great point. We also live close in and is considered in the city, though not " in " completely. We live in a smaller home that was the workers houses of the 50's and 60's for an old cotton mill up the street. The thing is, there's no real place for a garden, and what is there, I wouldn't plant in due to toxins in the soil. Nearly everyone whose lived here for years has some sort of cancer or sickness where they become weaker and weaker by it. I did get some huge planters and good soil to plant some veggies in and work ok, and can be moved when we do. We had lived in the place in the country I mentioned earlier, and had been working on buying it from the owners, but it went back to the bank because they had defaulted. When we moved, it was partly so T was close in to work [gas prices], and it was affordable on such short time to locate something. Like you, and many others, to move now would require moving help [$], moving truck [$], finding a place that a decent deal could be worked out on, etc... That doesn't include the incidentals of utility change overs, more fuel for traveling to work, if the same jobs are kelp for now, since many are experiencing jobs going away. Everything says " go now " , though the wallet doesn't...but that could be a real two edged sword. That's why more people should talk among themselves about the need and want of relocating. If a big flood was coming and we could predict that it would affect us unless we go to higher ground, we'd be gone, regardless. This falls into that kind of thing more and more...the flood is coming. Look, everybody send me a few hundred to a few thousand each, I'll find the land with water, wells, springs, plenty of resources to sustain and buy it for us all, then all ya have to do is move to it... " together " we'll figure out how to live, work and combine our resources and ideas to help us all. Well, maybe your not there yet, that's ok...would any of us do that? Too may still " thinking on it " , or not at all. Things are still " good " where they may be. The point of that statement is, people with this kind of thinking DO need to begin talking among themselves and know that most CAN'T do it alone...from the start of it to the doing of it as a " community " , all must be working towards that end, knowing some will be able to give of more of one thing than another. Most of us have " family " all over, and even if you told them about such an idea to move together on a piece of land, most of them would think you nuts, or being too " end of the world " oriented. So you have to look to " second families " , people of like mind. No one runs an intentional community as a head. It is run together as a whole. Do with what you have where you are now, but remember to use the law of attraction, and your thoughts about those who share ideas to find each other and the right situations and circumstances will come about. But it won't happen if you don't put it out there for others to know. If I had a few million I'd already found a place, built it, and moved you all to it...come what may...lol. But nothing has to be so big or expensive.....it can be done almost anywhere with the right group of people who pool what they have so all in that group/family are lifted up higher, and supported by each other. Let that be a lesson, alone does not ONE make...we need all our " parts " to be whole...intentionally creating small communities, in the same home, or on a piece of land that is sustainable for the number, creates possibilities not afforded a single piece by itself. By the way, don't send me any money, lol....but do make your decisions that may require you put all you have into it, as agreeable to all concerned.
