Consider the networks and communities you treasure. It’s tempting to think that these groups breathe a rare air. That it’s the stuff of providence, magic, and alchemy.

But what if that’s not quite true? What if beautiful connections are more common than we think? Or rather, more available?

What if meaningful connection is not far away, but only on the other side of a shared, intentional posture? That the magic is in choosing to be generous, empathetic and yes, vulnerable?

Perhaps community is only as rare as people’s willingness to enter into it.
