You are Welcome here! and there! and over there!

Coming back from a trip in Florida, I had the best idea ever! 

Well, at least I thought so. I had an image of creating a poster saying that all genders, races, nationalities, sexual orientation, religious and all differences are welcome here. Then I was going to print in my office, and distribute around town.

What a great idea! I was designing the poster when I went to have a coffee and saw a poster on the window of a store with the exact same thing (!!!). My first response was "I am late! Someone had the same idea and did it faster".

I had a mix of disappointment and admiration for who did the poster. "Why do I feel disappointed?", I asked myself. It lasted for a few minutes, until I saw the big picture. 

We live in a such competitive world that even something for the good of others can be competitive. I quickly changed my mind, "THIS IS AWESOME!". It means many people were as disappointed as I was with the currently lack of respect for humans - ad they are doing something about it! 

At the same time, I was reading a book called "The Aquarium Conspiracy" by Marilyn Ferguson, where she states that there is a group of individuals who are doing the same good things at the same time, and without knowing about each other. The book was written in 1980 and it's still so relevant to our time.

With that in mind, I simply joined the group, printed a bunch of posters and I am ready to share with the businesses.

and print yours!

The Powerful Invisible Community

Community - from the Latin commūnitās, equivalent to commūni (s), meaning "common, public, shared by all or many."

Common. We might accept some things in life. They might become normal, even common. We might live our lives as we think it is supposed to be. But how do we create a conscious and positive common ground, where we all can thrive?

Public. We might read news on TV, we might trust the news on facebook. We might believe in what the public believes. We might even transform what is public into something real. But how do we create a conscious and positive group of individuals - which is public, but does not belong to our everyday news?

Shared by all or many. We might share what we see on social media. We might share the bad news someone told us. We might even share things that we created. But how do we create a conscious and positive way of sharing empowering and good things?


The truth is that it is all here. There is a community of individuals with a positive COMMON belief that we are here to grow, and to help one another. There is a community of people who share their beliefs of Peace, Compassion and Kindness PUBLICLY. There is group of people who SHARE their inspiring news, how they overcome challenging times.

Better yet, this community is not only composed of individuals, but also of micro-communities. They might not know each other. Each community is doing what their high levels of awareness tell them. Each community is part of a larger community.

And, if you are reading this post, you probably belong to this broader community. You might think that what you do doesn't matter, but don't be fooled. Just because our community is quiet, it doesn't mean it is powerless. 

On the contrary, without any leader, media or physical connection, this community is the fastest and the most powerful growing group in the world. We don't hear about it because our connection is beyond physical. Without talking to each other, at any given moment there are people in Japan who are meeting to help each other, another group of women in Russia who are gathering together to heal those in need, a group of friends in Portland organizing an event to raise money for a cause.

In common? Just the fact that they all belong to the largest community of kind, compassionate, loving, peaceful and mindful people in the World - without knowing it.
