from the week of 17 November 2025
At an event by Common Ground, I shared a curiosity I had when it came to community building.
I wondered… “What is an essential trait a community builder must have to build their communities?”
Upon reflecting further, I realised what would be fatal to community building: a need to have control.
Therefore, I believe that the opposite of craving control must be what is essential for community building: equanimity.

Do not fear. Whatever happens to you in this life, you can transform.
Let yourself live this life you have been given. Let what is be what is.
