Keep Going and Keep Growing Community from the Small to US-All

It's special when people can find time and a way to 'get together'. The Cornwall School had a 'Gathering Room' (maybe the extension of the cafeteria or counting that in too..since it is nice to appreciate the social aspects of eating together not just refueling.)
 
I've often hoped there would be more ways to have some 'person to person' sharing in terms of making announcements, networking (maybe with a clip board available for people to list events with basic details or causes one is raising money for whether a non-profit, a tag sale, a 'personal request' in case there's room for barters or

Heaven comes to earth one baby at a time..and as we nurture them, or fail to do so, we get 'feedback'. Even with the 'best heartfelt care' we can find our returns on investment (ROI--new term I just learned) not resonating with our hopes and efforts. Still, a 'greater realm of love and possibility may be ushered in, to 'be our neighbor's keeper with gentle interventions, offers to explore options and protection of those they may be harming (especially women, youth, kids..but other men or women too).

No one lives in a bubble once one is born.

 Dear Marianne,
 
Just want to say how happy I am that you are able to do so much. I have many ideas on http://www.livfully.org I have shared and think we are on a similar path...mine a more localized, singular path and yours more universal. I have reached over 80K people through my posts in the past few years.

More Ways to Celebrate Community Year-Round!

Hi, I checked with PattyLennon.com and It's okay to share her site which has videos and may include her offer (check to see if still available) of a session of 90 minutes (rather than her regular one of 60) at the same price...With the many problems from health to insufficient wealth and an array of social and other struggles, almost everyone would welcome some insights. Hoping this is a helpful resource for those who think it's a 'good fit'. Maybe we can all find a few offers to share to help celebrate the Railroad Days Energy in North Canaan CT.

 Thanks to all volunteers, parents, adults

Hello Housatonic River and RailRoad Days 2018! Fireworks on July 28th and more at Poetry is Music before hand by the Depot and Collins Diner!

 I just wrote some thoughts to the Journal about the legacy of the Railroad and the Housatonic River. I wrote a song about such things a while back and hope get some folks together to give it a whirl (yes, join in the chorus, make up another verse or hear their own inspired song, poem, story and such. I'll have a patchwork quilt out near the Pavillion (or in it if it's raining...) on Thursday 7/26 from 7 to 8pm.

Consider it a Pop-Up Shop of Song and Sharing! #Pop-UpSongs. Be in touch if you'd like to have such a gathering at your own home or group location!
