REAL CARING COMMUNITY, AT LAST.

By Joe Mangiamele

The term self-generation perhaps is as aptly applied to community as it is to any form of organic development.

Community” when used biologically generally  refers to a collective form of life on which the individual organisms are dependent.

Human beings even with all their qualities of individuality find enrichment within the protective restrictions of broader community relations, out of which arise our laws, our sense of morality and own human culture.

I have for the past several weeks been observing this organic development of community here in Shorewood.

Its spontaneous impulses appear to be unrestrained except when sometimes rubbing against the stultifing energies of certain atrophying agency and institutional processes.

We are beginning to observe the birth of real and spontaneous community, an age-balanced community, where seniors are one of  its real components. The stimulating energies being evidenced are as significant as those who are involved.

Please take note Mr. Johnson, “caring community partnerships" are on the move.  Real caring community is on the way.
