Most experiences begin with people. Plus plants, animals, and everything in the environment. People are featured because animals and plants can’t read – the human advantage of advanced learning across borders. Animals, plants, and people enjoy a symbiotic relationship – that is, we need each other.
In my corner of paradise – and I hope soon to be your corner of paradise – you will discover people, animals and plants previously unknown to you. Some are very interesting and to be enjoyed. Some are best avoided.
Community is a group of people, flora, and fauna united by shared characteristics, such as location, interests, values, or experiences, and differing perspectives. When arriving to a new community, you may discover area-based norms and practices in lifestyle and business that differ from yours. Experience to enhance your life or simply make your life simpler. Maybe just relax more.
Learn as much as you will at your own pace. Embrace community through discovery of activities, outdoor living, dining, and shopping. Pay attention. Participate. Do more. Understand more. Enjoy more. Interesting interactions will follow. Or participate less because it is your time to rest, recharge, avoid the commute, relax more!
On the same subject of learning, discover what to avoid! Collaborate and share experiences to address common challenges. Generally, “go with the flow and the senses alert” is a good start to learn the community. Then choose your own path.
