Something must change

It is night, the sky is clear and I can see the Milky Way and Orion constellation. Later the Moon will rise and will be able to better see the forest that surrounds me. Until then I will just enjoy the campfire. But this is not a dream, this is my life, because I am privileged.

During winter, I read books, listen to podcasts, learn what I feel like, and wander in the forest with my dogs. When there is no more wood I gather some. When I feel like having interesting conversations, I host voluntears. When I miss my family I call them.

During summer I work at my mud house, maybe do some gardening, take care of my surroundings and enjoy nature with friends. When there is no food I go and buy some. When I feel like having a break I just lie down in the grass. When there is nothing to do, I do nothing.

„Divide and conquer” is the name of the game in today’s society: every one for himself, no cooperation, permanent growth, no care for the environment, no compassion and no spirituality. This is not sustainable, this is not the future that we want to build for our kids.

We can make a difference, either from the top down hoping that it will trickle down, or bottom up setting up a fire that will heat everything. I chose the latter since that will come from the people, from cooperation, from community.

An eco-socialist mindset will be a great beginning for a conversation. Learning from the mistakes of others, using consent, knowing our neighbors, learning from nature while living off the land, guiding our kids to grow, impacting the society as a whole, sharing the knowledge and resources, are the essence of an intentional community that I would like to build with you, because a good life must not be only for the prilegiade ones. Join me, let’s do this together!

I will strive to detail the way I see this community and I will write articles that you can find here:
