A Community Assignment

 

Community is not the Cloud or friends on Face Book or followers on Twitter.

Community is the bagger at the grocery store, the mechanic at the garage, your neighbors, your barber, the local principal, rabbi or minister down the street, the clerks at the library desk, the local fire captain, and the dentist two blocks over. It's the service clubs and choirs and the Little League. It can be found in bars, theater groups, motorcycle gangs, veteran halls, and used bookstores.

Assignment #1: Over the next three weeks, get the names of five community members. These must be people you have not met.

Assignment #2: Over the subsequent three weeks, go meet them.
