How would you improve your community?
Just reading over all the responses has been inspiring. You all have great ideas!
I have always enjoyed being part of community building events. They seem to put everyone is a good mood. Usually there is some art or design needed so I get to do something fun and interesting and within my skill set.
Next week I will be reading my book in classrooms and teaching kids ages five to eleven a simple breathing exercise. I hope there’s a little community building element in that. (It’s actually marketing research, so nothing altruistic at all)
I liked the blogs I read about being kind and paying it forward. These are things I can do every day and on my own. Improving our community can be simple or complicated. Offen, as was pointed out, it’s a lot of little things that add up to big differences. still the big ideas sounded really good.
(I do hope, one day, that teaching simple concious breathing techniques will improve the lives of kids and teachers and families and therefore communities. For now Im just grateful for the opportunities to try it out!) A huge thank you to my teacher friends!

practicing grace, talking to a neighbor, let a car go in ahead of your in traffic, stop for someone crossing the street…it’s amazing how just saying good morning to some random stranger on a path during a morning walk can feel..and yeah volunteering…without us, a lot of things just wouldn’t happen
