Community: The Best Result

For the longest time I've felt that we need to unite people groups within the class to achieve a common sense of purpose. What I am here to do: this needs to be answered with some amount of clarity, else you'll end being just another one of those other people, the also-did-engineering-and-got-placed-with-good-company kind of person. Instead, you could end up being the person who likes stringing a big bunch of words together, or the person who likes inky fingers! (yes, the people who've donated generously to the Fingerprint-Yourself-'Cause-You-Never-Know-When-You-Might-End-Up-In-The-Chokey cause are examples!)

People are your reflections in the mirror of time. This is something I've always believed in. And I've found that the best way to get to know yourself, is often the best way to get to know other people as well. (excuses! excuses!)

A feeling of groupiness, gathering, belonging, community, all something we've been looking for. Something that unites us all. And so, we've come up with the group for our class. The link's on the right side of the page for those absent-minded profs.

Open up. Just let people get to know you and hopefully (and in the process, if permissible, with all conditions applying, you'll probably end up knowing them better too) with all the help you can give each other, everybody grows. Everybody's happy.

But this takes time, and effort, both of which are becoming increasingly scarce resources. Resources that we can't recover no matter what. (Unless you're talking time travel here. And oh, if you do have something that can help, you know where to reach us.)

Make an attempt. Who knows, it could be the best thing you ever did; both for yourself, and the group.

So, you know what to do. Help others to help yourself.
