We wake up every morning in our Ethno Village and we take a stroll around the Park.. there are many neighbors out walking as well. After the stroll, we go by the Village Gym and sports center.. Lift some weights, and then play a bit of hand ball.. Every Wednesday we play with the same people, and the experience is far more enjoyable than anything in the "digital world".
It is a small Village of less than 350 people and you know everyone's name & face.. you know what they do to assist the Village, you know their favorite fruit, and their favorite community meals.
We have to work today, but we do not have a rigid schedule, we have tasks to complete, and as long as they are done Right, and on time, no one worries.
If we do our best in our assigned tasks, and we fail, then we are moved to a different kind of labor.
There is a Community job board next to the Village Office center, and we can volunteer for various jobs that we qualify for.
There is no real difference in feelings between work, and play.. No matter what we do, we are productive, and we are serving our neighbors and kin.
The Village is simple enough, no luxury or excess.. but everyone has enough. We do not eat packaged foods, we do not need to read the ingredients on the bag.
There are community projects going on at all times of the day , and night.. there are tournaments, and there are lesson centers for everyone.
Want to improve your programming skills? Drop by the Village library every Monday at 11 AM.
Want to better understand Bio Dynamic farming? Drop by the Southern Food garden Saturday at 7 am.
Truly everything that we could ever need is here.. but we are no longer prisoners, or slaves. We engage in activities Voluntarily, and no one is permitted into our spaces uninvited.
I wont say that everything is perfect.. there is still human drama, and pain.. but this too makes Life worth living.. giving opportunity for understanding , forgiveness, and growth.
We always feel safe in our Village since there are 35 members who Volunteer for "Community watch" , and there is always security training twice a week behind the Rec Center.. we have all forms of Hardware there.
Prior to the ParallelSociety we though that happiness was in Wealth, and Power, and in luxury.. but now we see how wrong we were.. We did not have to return to the 1950s to find fulfillment, we only had to return to NaturalValues.
It is not about the individual or the community, it is about Mutual Aid, and Free trade.. It is about Purpose, and Passion.. It is about Service to one another, and an upward ascent through the Cosmos.
Productive Labor is the Cause and the Cure.
Mutual Aid is the Reason and the Revelation.
Voluntarism is the Repose and the Resurrection.
Autarky is the Catalyst and the Control.
Natural Speech is the Kindness and the Keystone.
