Being in Community

“Part of being in community is noticing what’s needed. Part of being in community is doing what is necessary but unclaimed. Being part of a community means being willing to own what might not be easy or comfortable. I also learned that being part of a community means being willing to own one’s power, which required me to stretch beyond what I thought I’d be willing to do.” -Christine Slocum
