Community - Is it working or not?

In my experience with community, back in the day - there was lots to do.  There were people wanting to do things with me and actually - ASKING ME !   What a novel idea !  Anybody out there who feels like they've lost community or is it just me sitting here wondering about it all the time?  Or am I just in the wrong place at the wrong time?  Or am I in the right place with the right idea and we are all feeling isolated which in a sense - means we are in community.  That could be sad or could be an opening something big.  Anybody willing to explore this with me and my sister Thora?  Any takers?

We had a meeting in New Westminster called "Brainstorming" which in my opinion and my sister's seemed to go well and had great potential for everyone in my opinion.   We would love to do it again and look forward to hearing that some of you are also interested.  Just so you know, BRAINSTORMING in our case meant discussing all and any issues near and dear to our hearts - particularly, homecare (meals and house cleaning need to come back), CLBC cuts, etc.  Pretty much anything you could think of .  

Community would make a great discussion.  In this particular case, we could perhaps work together to help each other which in turn is community.  We both love to do that.  We all need to help each other more.  This, by it's simplicity could go far to make major changes in the world.
