CARPE DIEM!!
Profile Information
- I'm looking to join, form or already affiliated with an Intentional Community?
- All of the above!!
- How did you find A Place for Gathering?
- research, thefec.org & ic.org
- About Me:
- I’m a 27 year old American-Korean adoptee. I just moved back to Minnesnowta from my recent summer travels. I took off at the end of April of this year, worked hard and play harder in Yellowstone National Park.
I tend to see things for what they could be, not what they actually are..
Awesome Saying:
"You're not your job.
You're not how much money you have in the bank.
You're not the car you drive.
You're not the contents of your wallet.
You're not your f-ing khakis.
You're the all-singing, all-dancing crap of the world.
I see all this potential, and I see squandering.
Gosh dang it, an entire generation pumping gas, waiting tables; slaves with white collars.
Advertising has us chasing cars and clothes, working jobs we hate so we can buy stuff we don't need.
We're the middle children of history, man.
No purpose or place.
We have no Great War.
No Great Depression.
Our Great War's a spiritual war... our Great Depression is our lives.
We've all been raised on television to believe that one day we'd all be millionaires, and movie gods, and rock stars.
But we won't.
And we're slowly learning that fact.
And we're very, very pissed off.
In the world I see - you are stalking elk through the damp canyon forests around the ruins of Rockefeller Center.
You'll wear leather clothes that will last you the rest of your life.
You'll climb the wrist-thick kudzu vines that wrap the Sears Tower.
And when you look down, you'll see tiny figures pounding corn, laying strips of venison on the empty car pool lane of some abandoned superhighway."~Fight Club
- Hobbies:
- I have tons of varied interests and hobbies, to name a few:
writing, creative art, photography, hiking, mountain biking, camping, building & fixing things, dinking and tinkering with stuff seeing how it works or how it could work better, traveling and getting the chance to meet new people and living & exploring new enriching life experiences..
- What kind of Skill and Support can you offer a community?
- a variety such as cooking, farm-type labor, some permaculture stuff plus I'm reading, studying and trying to learn about how to build green eco-building and architecture/design
- What States are you interested in for Community?
- open-ended as I'm currently seeking to a) form a like-minded team to either start an intentional community and/or b) join one as a new entity or team member
- My Visions or Views for Intentional Communities are:
- People 1st, money 2nd.
I have written up a hypothetical vision, belief(s), rules, by-laws for an unamed village/town/ic, seeking to add ideas to forming or already established ic groups, or like-minded serious about starting an ic.

Happy Holidayz!!
So Merry X-Mas, Happy Hanukkah, Cheery Kawabata, whatev you feel the "politically correct" term should be..
Me, I don't care about being "politically correct" . I believe that I am you, and you are me.
Nevertheless, my reflection on the Holiday Season is NOT about going broke buying "stuff" or the new "trendy cliche thing" you see advertised on tv during NFL Sunday.
Though I think Danica Patrick is totally awesome, sweet and the shiznit! Oh, also add Carrie Underwood to that list por favor, c… Continue

I have spent a large amount of energy on my own thoughts on intentional/community living and believe this is a good time in my life to start taking them to manifestation.
Anyways, If you think we might be able to work together I am interested in discussing opportunities. I am currently 3 1/2 hours away from Mpls. but I have a cell phone with free minutes after 9 or plenty of time to chat online.
the more an more i go out side the more and more im feeling i ont want to go back to th house i just want to get my tent for a while and chill some where the urge to get out travel are really srong the only thing keeping me here is my mom have too much love and i worry about here well sometime in the ne months or maybe next year ill be free to rom as i please peace jin thatnks for your encourage ment even a comment can lead to great things lol much thought
Take a look at my post on making a commune, I'd like to hear your ideas, as would others I'm sure.
Peace man,
Spirit Wynd

the greed in the world revolves around money what a dirty yet at the same time helpful seeing as its the only way to buy warm clothes not like i can earn them yet i need to get out of here first . . .
