My Ideal community

My Ideal Community Paul Ryan said Every successful individual knows that his or her achievement depends on a community of persons working together. A community is a group of people who are connected, bounded, and united by something special. The word itself includes important roots, such as common, unite, and unit. A community consists of people with similar goals that are united together as one. A truly special community is a one that its members are proud of, one that stands out from others, and one that can be used to represent every member in it. It’s a place where one feels safe and secure. Since as long as one can remember, the successful organization and balance of society has been a difficult task to effectively manage. Personal opinions and external pressures have consistently influenced the shape and underlying growth of many communities. An ideal culture must maintain a natural balance of values and proportions, legal laws and moral codes, history and traditions, aptitude and ambitions, civic sence and brotherhood. In an ideal culture, equality is essential and sacrifice leads to growth. According to Thomas Jefferson, “No man is born with a saddle on his back for another man to ride”. I believe this quote is significant as it not only symbolizes justice, but also active participation by all. With these selfless characteristics in mind, a sense of community is built where education, the exchange of ideas, and unity, provides for a flourishing civilization. My ideal community is one where I can recognize people that I can call my friends, my family, my supporters, my motivators, and even my opponents. A place that’s diverse, and makes me feel welcomed and loved. I can call any place a community, as long as it’s a place where I am constantly surrounded by others who care about me. And in return, I care about them. Being a part of a community is a strong and powerful thing; knowing that you are accepted and cared for by others brings a sense of security and protection to many people, including You and me. But the thing here is that most of us took the communities for granted, make no efforts for it to flourish, breakthrough and blossom. Community is important for any individual; community can give one a sense of security, pride, family, and support system. Every individual should have quality support systems; with a system of support one has something to fall back on when he/she is struggling. This support system can guide individuals to make the right decisions. Community can be more to someone than a place on a map. Henry Miller said; “The ideal community, in a sense, would be the loose, fluid aggregation of individuals who elected to be alone and detached in order to be at one with themselves and all that lives and breathes. It would be a God-filled community, even if none of its members believe in (a) God. It would be a paradise, even though the word had long disappeared from our vocabulary.”
