1) What is a community?

First and foremost, community is not a place, a building, or an organization; nor


is it an exchange of information over the Internet. Community is both a feeling and
a set of relationships among people. People form and maintain communities to meet
common needs.

Members of a community have a sense of trust, belonging, safety, and caring for
each other. They have an individual and collective sense that they can, as part of
that community, influence their environments and each other.

That treasured feeling of community comes from shared experiences and a sense of—
not necessarily the actual experience of—shared history. As a result, people know
who is and isn’t part of their community. This feeling is fundamental to human
existence.

2) What are the 10 Marks of an Ideal Community?

The ideal community has 10 characteristics, according to Kathleen Kovner Kline, a


child psychologist from Dartmouth University. Kline, along with 31 other
researchers, offer this list in a new study called "Hardwired to Connect."

1. The best community is a social institution that includes children and youth.

2. It treats children as ends in themselves.

3. It is warm and nurturing.

4. It establishes clear limits and expectations.

5. The core of the work is performed largely by nonexperts.

6. It is multigenerational.

7. It has a long-term focus.

8. It reflects and transmits a shared understanding of what it means to be a good


person.

9. It encourages spiritual and religious development.

10. It is philosophically oriented to the equal dignity of all persons and to the
principle of love of neighbor.

In community lies strength of numbers.


to support the sick and the weak.
In community somebody hears me,
with louder voices to speak

In community others surround us.


Their dreams, their love and their faces,
encourage our hearts to prosper;
our minds to accept other places.

In community disaster may come


But, grief shared and faith in our all,
makes death's pall linger less strongly,
our tears with others can fall.

In community lies man's ambition.


Without, makes larger our fears.
Together we make sense of being
and bring joy and length to our years.

My Ideal Community
Is where you and me.
To make it short it is we,
We are the Communtity.

We have different beliefs and race,


But we have goals to face.
Individualism is now obsolete
For our mission is to be one and complete.

We do not care for ourselves only


Also we are compassionate both to bullied and bully.
We do not choose on who we serve
For we are responsible and has good motive.

Let us be considerate and care for everything,


For we value and treasure anything.
