Hi Lynne!

Always great to get an email, and now look what you’ve done! This is a movement larger than we know, and growing quickly. Glad to know … and hence, learn and expand as we transform everything…

I get giddy when NVP does anything because I know & love them & they remind me I’m on the right path. A “path with heart” as Don Juan described to Carlos Casteneda. We don’t know what life has in store for us. I meet people who are in professions they never thought they’d be in but would have had they known how much joy & purpose they now experience.

I don’t know what I’ll be when I grow up but it won’t be a war monger or captain of an oil transporting ship. I know it’ll be as a social entrepreneur, arts & humanitarian, fund-raiser for worthy causes…I’m at the helm of a leaf in the wind. “Spirit” guides my vessal. NVPs are stars I navigate by.

I was really pleased to read about efforts to restore a sense of community into our urban centers. I have been searching for more community and interconnectedness, with limited success. But slowly connections are forming in my community garden, and most recently, by joining the CoG Community Grocery and meeting people during occasional group work days. I would love to hear about other heart-work which brings people together.

How great it is to see that Giorgio Di Cicco has found a new cousin in the New Village Commons. He will be thrilled. NVP’s ability to connect ideas and people continues to amaze me, and my sense is that it is on the cusp of something great. Has NVP ever considered convening a group of creative community builders face-to-face to explore common ground and best possibilities for the future?

Congratulations and thank you to New Village Press for making this forum possible. It’s one thing to create the beautiful, valuable, inspiring and useful books, but now to have this real-time opportunity to share our work is over the top.

To those of you who make it possible, thanks for the gift.
