Community over Culture - Publishing Jan 22

What you see here is a music concert, I assume. It emulates a more forward approach to how our society works here in the United States of America; with a me-first approach. We raise our hand, hoping to be selected and not left behind. We are not good with isolation, nor should we be.

We learn this as kids as a proactive way to not be by ourselves, to join something greater than ourselves, to not be the last one standing. This conjoining, being with others, is woven throughout our ecological fabric. And we must be conscious of being so selective that we forget the other people. Competition can be healthy, but not for the sake of crushing the people next to you. Proposer comes from raising our hand with the other person, and joining in a communal way.
