cit·i·zen·ship
Merriam-Webster's Dictionary definition of citizenship provides two meanings:
- The status of being a citizen.
- a) Membership in a community.
b) The quality of an individual's response to membership in a community.
It's the second meaning that we are focusing on and hope to encourage more people to think about. It's easy to go through life by taking care of our own day-to-day activities without having to worry about anything else. But is that right?
Asking this makes me think of the following questions:
- Should we help?
- How do we help?
- What help do we give?
This is where most people think it gets tricky as most people don't think they have the time, energy or resources to help. But as we develop this project, we are going to show that that isn't the case. In fact, what you can do doesn't take much in extra time or energy and instead can be thought of as developing new habits.
So onward and upward. What are some of the things you do that makes things in your community a little better?
