Empowerment by friendly networks
As the scope of service become wider and deeper,
the learning path towards holism
proved to become tougher and more challenging.
I began to see the importance of coordination among
like-minded people to get things work out as a teamed effort.
This is where I started to appreciate a line
that I picked up from a window-displayed book @ MPH bookstore
many years back.
Quoting (crudely) from the biography of a successful figure (which I can't remember now):
"what make me a successful person isn't my talent, it's my network"
My belief on people network gradually strengthen
along the years of voluntary services.
No matter how I boost my vitality and manage my emotion,
I still couldn't get all things done all by myself
and eventually have to acknowledge the necessity of coordinated effort
to serve broader public...
This is when I looped in a few good friends to officially
start up Cielo Sereno in order to lay off some of my workload
in my education effort on organic living.
This is also when I deeply felt grateful about
having a bunch of sincere good friends around me
supporting the same ideal for a peaceful and healthy society.
Everytime I look back on how Cielo Sereno is well on track,
(the last check on Cielo Sereno web visit statistics, revealed
there have been >500 unique visitors
fetching some educative info from the website every month)
the similar notion came up:
-- it's the network of like minded friends that make
our organic education impactful and significant.
I slowly realise, network and relationship make a holistic life
more complete, more abundant
and more empowered (for a bigger and better cause).
Gratefully,
Kee Yew

I was just reading a holiday sentiment very similar to this. The idea was something like "we are measured by the enthusiasm and love we bring to others" And it's reciprocal, I think. The more we share with others, the more they share with us.
