The Good Code Houses

I have been working on developing a model for sustainable community. If all goes as planned on Oct 1 the first Good Code House will be in existence.

I thought I would share the mission statement with the Evolver community:

Good Adventures Begin with Good Ideas
1. Foster sustainability
affordable housing
development of lifelong friendships (love and care)
rules that make good sense

The Untouchables

Jill came to church today: white skinny girl, pretty but gaunt in a sexy dress and clearly pregnant. Before I knew of any of her story I felt called to go up to her. Almost as soon as I put my arms around her she burst into tears.

We will tell them that it is the Good Lord inside us that made us do it

About a month ago I wound up with a 20-year-old troubled girl in my life. Jennifer has multiple strikes against her. She spent half of her childhood in the system because her mother beat her up so badly. Her mother is a drug addict who has had 17 children. Every single child was taken away. Jennifer reads at the 2nd grade level. She has been in drug rehab herself for chrystal meth and cocaine.

Update: What I have done (and you can do) to help pass SB1381: The Compassionate Use of Medical Cannabis Pilot Program Act

1. Yesterday i received a phone call and was told that there is good reason to hope that State Representative Flilder will seriously consider voting yes for SB1381 during the veto-session in December. Representative Flider faces a tough race this November and I was asked to give him a break.

Do it For God. Do it For Country. Do it in Love.

Have you ever sat back and thought about the IDEA of a "DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE" and a "CONSTITUTION?"

The United States Constitution ROCKS!! We have soooo many RIGHTS that we CAN EXCERSIZE in America (we need a few amendments, tho). :)

I think it is a Duty to excersize our Political Rights. I have a duty to be involved politically. This is called Civic Duty.
