2 Your Community
In many ways, communities are like extended families. They typically form from individuals or groups with common interests like neighborhoods, schools, business, religion, sports, etc. However, a community is never any stronger than its individuals. Historically, strong involved individuals are an asset to their community, but the weak, disinterested, or uninvolved people can be liabilities, and sometimes the community suffers because of them.
You are part of many communities: member of the human race; citizen of a nation, state, or city; member of a church, civic group, political party, club, team, etc. There are endless possibilities to contribute. The quality of your membership relies largely on your involvement and the level of your commitment to each group. However, the strength of each of these groups depends in part on how much you care about and support your community.
