Community

We are in the middle of school applications, job applications and life evaluations.  I read this on the Ringwood Waldorf School's website. How perfect for the changes we are going through as a family.  

“And if any man works for the community, he must perceive and feel the meaning and value of this community, and what it is as a living, organic whole. He can only do this when the community is something other and quite different from a more or less indefinite totality of individual men. It must be informed by an actual spirit in which each single person has his part... The whole communal body must have a spiritual mission, and each individual of it must have the will to contribute towards the fulfilling of this mission. In every single member down to the least, this Spirit of Community must be alive and active.”

Rudolf Steiner Anthroposophy and the Social Question (1905)
