A global community

Have you ever traveled by airplane and looked down at the ground below you? Did you notice that the land was either yellow, or blue, or green just like it was on a map? More likely you noticed that it appeared seamless. The colors of the map represent the boundaries created to define the borders of what belongs to me and what belongs to you. Yet when it all comes down to it, it is what we share that constitutes our global community. It is the air we breathe, the water we drink, the food we consume that sustains us all. We maintain a delicate balance with the planet and its resources and our duty is to do our part in this. Who owns what will be unimportant if we cannot work together to sustain our global community. A community works best when each of its members is committed to a common purpose. What is the purpose that you see and how are you doing your part to be a contributing member of that community?
