How is a community built?

desde chiquito soñaba con fundar una comunidad… estimulado por la lectura de cuentos y libros que hablaban de personas compartiendo sus productos de forma equitativa y solidaria para sostener un espacio colectivo.

Me dediqué a la docencia entendiendo que el conocimiento específico era una simple excusa para formar ciudadanos…

El tema ahora es … para qué comunidad?

Ahi es donde inicia este planteo… y que ya varias veces hemos interpelado … dentro de las ciudades actuales, … hay chances de generar nuevas colectividades que sostengan principios y valores que sostengan una comunidad sana?..

Aloha! Esto es mandatario?

Qué es lo que querrías hacer?

Okay! A year has passed, and that might be a very short time for most, but for me, it’s a lot.

In these nine months and eleven days of the year, I learned a lot about the reality of living in a community.

I lived in 4 countries, more than 20 physical spaces, wrote one book, and read more than 5.

I spent almost ten days in the jungle, in a new age tribe concept, where some charged a lot of money.

I was stranded in Costa Rica, without money, a cell phone, or food. Close to those around me, with no other reality than “the truth.”

I spoke with millionaires, homeless people, Catholics, anarchists. Inhabitants from all continents.

Everyone lives, everyone thinks, everyone feels.

And my conclusion is that you build by building, just as you study by studying or walk by walking.

So, to build a community, one contributes time and money. The rest is pure fiction.

They are generated spontaneously when there is a common goal strong enough for them to be generated (and sustained).

Most people live in society, not in community, which exists as long as that goal is not recognized or respected.

There, they say that everything is individual and most people believe it, even though nature shows us the opposite (every day).

For a long time, I’ve only associated with artists :slight_smile:

Adding something I just read and found curious to share:

Eating your own food or “dogfooding” is the practice of using one’s own products or services.

It can be a way for an organization to test its products in real use using product management techniques.

Hence, dogfooding can act as quality control and ultimately as a kind of testimonial advertising.

Once on the market, dogfooding can demonstrate developers’ confidence in their own products.
