This is a crazy idea I have.  To create a kind of virtual, old-fashioned neighborhood of friends to do stuff with when its more fun to be with someone than alone. I have no idea if anyone else has a need for this kind of community, nor have I thought through the details of how to make it work.  I need folks to show interest, share ideas, and share in leadership. Purpose: Create horizontal community that transcends age and interests.  Community for the sake of community.  There is nothing wrong w …

To be human is to experience suffering.  To be in recovery, is to be aware of suffering and willing to let go of that which causes suffering.  Each of us has our own life experiences which have brought us to this point, and each of us must walk a distinct path.  Buddhism offers a framework to become more aware of the nature of suffering, and how to end suffering.  I hope you'll accept my invitation to try these tools yourself, and find ease in your own life.

The vision for this group is to walk 3-4 times a week between 7:00-8:00 a.m. in the South Palo A …
