Happy Family

I am not now, nor have I ever been, aiming to build an "intentional community."

I am offering the technology of the Happy Family which may infuse every household in America with barely a ripple. The practices I teach fit in to EVERY way of living to create harmony and peace in family units and other spaces where we are closely-packed with others we are doing our best to love.

Like dating for marriage, building an intentional community is an abstraction-first approach which is antithetical to the emergent nature of the Village Principles. However, if we apply these relational principles, they are likely to give rise to our healthiest marriage AND a thriving community which runs on mutual compatible intentions which need never be spoken aloud.

This technology is what it means to live into decentralized power, holistic decision-making, union of masculine and feminine creational principles, emergent systems held by sustainable structures. We can't not-be-codependent, and we can't simply say the words "decentralized power" and have that be what's happening. There are practices and belief frames which we must enact in order to HAVE a different way of organizing our society.

Nothing about the world needed to change for me to claim this Way for myself.

The work begins and ends within.
