SPIRIT OF THE COMMUNITY

[shellyann]

For me and my children, its about having a sense of connection to a place and responsibility to other people in that community. We are suppose to look out for each other..........85 % of Americans feel less connected to their neighbors today than two decades ago. Neighborhoods and the spirit of neighborliness are old fashioned virtues that we've have lost track of.
Life is more fun, easier and more satisfying if you have a connection with people you live among.

Here are ways to rekindle your neighborhood.

Invite a neighbor over for coffee or a cookout, form an association it can tackle problems or take advantage of an opportunity , create your own gathering place such as a yard or field. There are a lot of neighbors out there waiting for one or two people to become a spark plug.
