The Big Picture pulls together elements from Vision, Dwell and Grow. Habitation is a necessity. Even nomads have their place of habitation. It may not look like a typical subdivision. But their world and place of dwelling is important to them.
We need to inhabit a place to live. So much the better if we can inhabit places based on principles that are good for all of us.
Take a moment to consider how The Big Picture fits into The Story Arc of Community. Both images are supplied beginning with The Story Arc of Community.
The Reimagine and Rethink websites are interconnected. It’s like how the right and left sides of our brain work together (well … that’s another discussion … they are supposed to …).
When we “think outside the box” we are often drawing upon the creative side of our being. That’s a good thing. But we need to be able to Reimagine and to Rethink, in the context of Community, to establish the best results.
Creativity needs to be in balance with solid thinking. And solid thinking needs to be in balance with creativity. They both have a valuable part to play. In some aspects of our modern-day education systems, we have diminished the value of creativity. When we unduly elevate the intellect, academic prowess, and logic, that’s a mistake. On the other hand, unduly elevating creativity will also cause problems.
It’s fun to imagine an anti-gravity machine. But engineering it? Well, that’s another discussion!
Logic doesn’t do a great job of wiping away tears. But hugs, a listening ear and empathy work.
