hey all,

i think about this alot, the idea of like minds being physically close but also, a place where 'seekers' can reside (if they want to be a part of taking care of the retreat (in a perfect community kinda way) and as a retreat for families that need guidance about 'how to love' and how to accept themselves and others around them. this is the main issue of many people that we see walking around almost zombie like without a care in the world.

i am working towards having such a place but plans for it dont even really begin till after 2012....

my ideal dream would be to have land that provides good growing grounds, natural waters, forests...the retreat part of it would be a library for all materials, gurus that understand the different reasons for different spiritualities of the ages, cooking house and gardens areas that every visitor would be expected to help care for the gardening or land and persoanl consoltations to families that are coming to learn how to 'live together productivly'. i believe the world needs this, and the ones wanting to make this happen need to come together to make it happen. but again, i see this starting right about 2012, i seem to be planning for here instead of planning for somewhere else (or mabey my mind is just more comfortable thinking it will be here).

but if we all are still here>>>lets have a retreat. some could live at the location, others can volunteer for certain amounts of time, and others can come just for the healing and learning experiences.

to really have a community of sorts, a working productive community with living space ect....would take a lot of planning. unless we all just agree to meet up once a yr. in a certain location...then again, the problem of everyone trying to be there at one given time of the yr. fails for many. we need a place that is 'always open' and someone is 'always there' ....we know the benefits to this, we do it here via internet all the time. imagine the benefits of this healing and learning experience being face to face, hand to hand, eyes to eyes with others.

peace to all,
lynette
