    There's no "I" in Community...

    Okay...so maybe there is an "i" but you get the point.

    Community is a funny thing.  Lots of people talk about it, few people actually do it.

    Community means different things to different people...a warm meal during a difficult time, a group to share feelings/beliefs/fears/victories with, or just simply a group with similar interests; Community is not THIS easy to define.

    I am a part of many different communities.  A family, a church, friends, an office, various online platforms...each one supporting me in differrent, yet complimentary ways.

    So why write about community?  What's the point?  I believe the word itself (like so many words today) is thrown around without much notice.  All you need is a good idea and a friend that is into coding, and you can build a "community."  If you have cable, you can watch community.  If you own a computer, you can join almost any community...but I think true community runs much deeper than commenting on a blog or following someone on twitter...doesn't it?

    No answers today...just questions.
