[ChatAction] Seeking alignment in Cities Rising to best serve your / our intentions

[Shannon McArthur]

Dear Marilyn, Beth & Lesley,

Organizing what you desire for Cities Rising is better with your input so
we can align our actions - January 11 is *only 2 weeks away!*

We invite you to meet with us (the Cities Rising ChatAction people), to
hear your vision and to share ours - our imaginations have been sparked!
With your collaboration we will be better able to serve your / our
intentions - and the outcomes!

What is your vision? What questions/kind of interaction do you expect in
each AfterChat?

   -

   Monday: Notice your relationship with your city/community and your
   learning edges – the places outside of your comfort zone.
   -

   Tuesday:  Experience your city /community as a living system of complex,
   adaptive dynamics.
   -

   Wednesday: Discover and explore the governing principles and structures
   that best support the local conditions of your city/community functions;
   -

   Thursday: Generate ideas for your “civic practice" that will enable you
   to use the tensions in your city /community to shape your service to your
   city/community so that it can best serve you
   -

   Friday: Notice how you are mobilizing with regenerative action in ways
   that enable relationships of reciprocity with, within and from
   cities/communities.



We are working on and setting up Zoom practice; have already sent
invitations to organizations and people based on what was received, and
want to include Cities and stakeholders. Can we invite the diversity of
faces and experiences, intergenerational BIPOC, underseen, underheard,
unrecognized and underserved members of our networks and communities? If
not now, when?


On the subject of when... when can you meet with us? We yearn to be at your
service!

That’s the ChatAction section… I’ve got more to offer/ask -



I am a priestess of Gaia. She gave me both a Promise of Peace and a Plan
for Humanity: Our Heart Gardens <http://ourheartgardens.com> (“Oh-Gs”),
shared community gardens that, like the hearts of a worm, support sections
of the body. In the case of the Body of Humanity, those sections are the
communities within our cities - organs of the Body of the One we are…  Your
presentations lead me to feel you will understand what I’m saying, and see
an alignment.

Have you considered Malini’s questions (emailed previously & listed below)?
We have: my BFF and I looked through the Oh-Gs lens to see how
establishment of a network of shared indoor community gardens will serve
Humanity and the integral parts that comprise the One that We are.  This is
the recording <https://youtu.be/siXE1dQol2E> of that discussion (presence
for the Season!)

Are we:

1.      Designing cities to empower children?

2.      Designing cities for inclusion of persons with disabilities or
differently abled people?

3.      Designing cities to be safe from violence, arson and dacoity?

4.      Designing cities to be disaster prepared?

5.      Designing cities for resource optimization?
6.      Designing cities to uphold local cultural traditions?

Bless you, and all you do...
