People – Are we all Drifting away?

While standing at the side of a building I look around, I look towards people and they look away. Could I say anything to those people – what would I talk about, how do we staty a community with people in the real world.

A community centre – What is it used for? Is it open to the community? for general use or is it just clubs/societies that run here instead?

I would like to see it as an open place where anyone can come together, chat, have a drink.. On another note, i’d like to do a bible study group where people can come and discuss stuff together. I’ve been in church groups that do it and Christian Union groups as a student but never in the actual communities we call home.

I don’t know if it’ll happen, but would like to see it – Not sure how to procede yet… Should be interesting.

People – Who are we?

What do we see when we look at people? Is it their Job, their actions or how they look. What defines a person and how is it an alone thing. We are all different and I thank God that we are.

Today I’ve had a day out of my normal life to view the past year and whats around me. I can’t say that i’ve worked much out but have noticed a few things that has been nice. I came to wander and watch as everyone is crowded together yet seeking to be with others, on telephones, in a book, in journal writtings or just looking away from people to inner worlds.

We need community back and all or so many seem to want it, otherwise why would sites such as MySpace, and Facebook thrive so well. We want our friends around us – So how can we do this.
