A Sense Of Community

About 15 years ago I placed one liners in the local newspaper ads. One liners like: ‘Have you had thoughts of a village or a small community? Phone Emmanuel…’ At the time what I found remarkable was how many people phoned and shared how my one liner caused deep reaction in them. Since then I haven’t done it again.

However in June 2009 I launched a website and my book. Several people have shared with me since the launch how they also have such thoughts: Of creating a center. And in most cases people were astounded at having such similar thoughts. I suspect the center and the small village/community have bearing on each other.

Let’s look into into what the associations are and if there is indeed any connection to our origins. And whether these thoughts come from a time preceding our conception.

Is it possible that we long for our origins: The source of our lives that is peaceful and where we are just souls manifesting here on planet earth, within the limitations that we’ve created? Instead we are not giving of our essence; not manifesting our meaning; not manifesting our purpose; not living our optimal lives.

Hence we yearn for the simplicity and the ingredients within us that are so locked away that we’re not aware of them. As an example: from time to time I ask people whether they consider themselves as part of nature: they usually conclude they are, but consider themselves different to nature.

When we realize how differently we behave from the rest of nature (I suspect mainly because we have the additional ability to make choices and to steer our lives in the direction we’d prefer to), then maybe we’d make the choice to take the journey to our optimal life.

I’ve thought of the idea of people participating in the center, over many years. The center would be more than I’d ever be able to describe or define.

So let me approach it from another perspective. Those participating in the center would have these experiences: They’d be doing the things they like. And it doesn’t matter what they’re doing. It would be created from the basic reason of doing what they’ve always wanted to do. Each moment there would be no limits placed on what they’re doing.

Some instances: let’s say you manufacture something, like children’s clothing. Or say you like to make music and have never had the opportunity. Or let’s say you want to compose music and do not know how. Each person has certain things they have a natural talent for. For instance, my talents are amongst other things, with writing, computer programming and marketing.

There would also be a place for us to eat at the centre, where people who enjoy cooking and baking would cook and provide food and snacks for us. And when we feel like a break, maybe help someone else with what they’re doing. We’ll also bring our children to the center.

What matters to me is that the center provides a basis for participants to do the things they like doing. That the center provides a place and the means to support people who want to uncover themselves and who want to then make a living from their talents in a beneficial way, not the way society dictates today, that things should be done for survival and for money, no matter the consequences.
