Yeah starting has been a difficulty in these past, so props to you for creating the vision in your local area. I agree and its fits the quote, "act locally, think globally". Yeah, all it take is one person to start. When you manifest this space you are talking about and make an example to guide others, then this will definitely affect the masses.

I do have similar goals and i would join you physically if I were geographically closer like you said.
I am now beginning to realize that each one of us has the power to impact each other in a positive way, with a true creative expression of ourselves once by sharing it with others. What i realized is that i have been lacking sharing my creations with others.

I support you from afar. Keep on creating your vision and share it with ever person like there an old friend you havent seen in a long time, cheers!
