"No man is an island unto himself" (popular paraphrasing from John Donne), means we're all connected. We need the support of our community, be it a family, neighborhood, place of worship, workplace or a group of friends. Nowadays even the Internet can serve as a community, via chat rooms etc. Without a sense of communal support we feel lonely, abandoned and can become depressed and lose our sense of purpose.

A community is like a container into which people put in what they can and take out when they need to. The resources must be continually replenished so there is always a storehouse for those in need. It works the same way in any relationship. I contribute to my community by donating freely and with enthusiasm, my knowledge about health and nutrition, weaving into it any relevant subject I studied or thought long and hard about.

I also lobby, sign petitions etc. to protect organic and natural farming, our air and water supply, free supplement and alternative medicine use and oppose the use of GM foods and GMO's (genetically modified organisms), pesticides and herbicides.

Below are links to some of the ways I'm active in the community:
