Community Sucks

Mostly I sing the praises of living in the beautiful mess of community. But it is messy and sometimes it sucks.


Community sucks when...

...people you love move away

...you cannot live up to the *assumed* expectations of your retired neighbors

...you have no privacy

...you are too busy and too tired to connect with people

...people obsess about the most ridiculous things

...you are annoyed and want to be left alone

...people talk about you 

...you talk about people

...you feel watched and judged

...you let people down

 ...you lose perspective
