In order to be more effectively self-reliant agents for change, we need a community to nurture and support us, to question and challenge us. The FLOW community is characterized first of all by radical tolerance, so expect to find people very different from yourself within the community. But everyone who joins the FLOW community should be expected to share FLOW principles, and thus to be a partner in our larger project of changing the world for the better. Learn to learn from differences, while seeking out commonalities that give strength.
