Community. A Powerful word. One used to describe folks gathered for a purpose- whether that purpose be conscious, unconscious or subconscious. All of us are connected in community somehow. The job, the grocery store, church, the park, sporting event, theater, hiking trail. Community is how we live. Even if you resist it and pretend you aren’t connected. You are. I am. It’s the way it is.
Conscious Community. Two powerful words. Both used to describe folks gathered for a purpose- and are aware of that purpose.
Conscious Loving Community. Three powerful words. All used to describe folks gathered for the purpose of cultivating and revealing a transformative and dynamic love that heals and inspires. This is Genesis. This is the revolution that is evident as every aspect of our beloved community. How will you contribute to the love revolution that is Genesis today?
Love.

Today I’m contributing by being a Conscious Commentor on my Instagram photography iPhone app. Over 6 million users take snapshots using this app all over the world, posting them on mobile phones making it like a photo-only Facebook. It’s now started to be used like a visual twitter system so the world is sharing amongst itself via image-based conversations.
I tell people that Instagram is shrinking the world and expanding it at the very same time. I thank the photographers for being the in-the-field, eyes and ears of everyday life, for being generous enough to (1) share their world and (2) share what it’s like for them to be human just like me. Knowing more about people makes me love them more and more and more.
