Changes

Your [[services]] may not be needed in your immediate [[community]], but in another one in another state or region of the country in which you live, so you would move. And this will happen over and over as it does today. But more and more, people will find solace and [[continuity]] in their lives where they live, and go to other places knowing that their lives would only be slightly different than where they came from. But this is centuries in the [[future]]. Now, these [[plans]] are given to you as a [[template]] for you to examine and for possible and probable implementation in the future. It will take you much time to develop a [[conscious]] effort and you will know when to do this, for there will be a [[necessity]] around you that requires this to occur. As I am speaking to you today, there are with me a [[contingency]] of community developers who stand with me, providing [[information]] to me as I give it through this individual to you. These individuals are [[Celestial Teachers]] who have come from, and have their origins and mortal [[existence]] on planets that had [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intentional_community intentional communities]. They have great experience and through their [[training]] on the [[celestial]] spheres, they have a much more complete grasp of community development, and particularly through the [[Correcting Time]] and the Community Mission effort, their training is specific for [[your planet]] at this time, as it is specific for the [[Isolated worlds|other planets]] that came out of quarantine. There is much to do on all these planets, and there is a great deal to do on yours. Although [[United States|your nation]] is prosperous, it has taken the [[ethos]] of the rugged [[individual]] to the far [[extremes]] where the individual is left [[alone]] to stand and to survive on their own without the supports of [[community]]. It also provides a very warped [[perspective]] of [[integration]] in your society, as there is an endemic [[selfishness]], which is not to be admired, or encouraged. Yet we do not [[encourage]] individuals to become dependent upon social agencies for their [[support]], but to become contributors in meaningful ways to their own [[life]], and to the life and function and survival of others, [[becoming]] a sustaining influence in their own individual right in their community.

There is much to overcome, yet this rugged [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Individual#Recommended individualism] is also to be admired because it has created in many of you a sense of [[hope]], of capability to move forward and to make a [[difference]] in a land of millions of individuals. Would it not be a very disparate situation if you felt you were incapable and could not make a contribution? In the [[future]] in an intentional community, each of you will know you have [[potential]] to make a tremendous impact upon your community, and especially upon the [[course]] of your life; that your life is [[intentional]] and so is your [[community]], and that it is not required that you make a contribution to it, but that you become [[integrated]] into it; for the individual who does not, will stand apart and be [[alone]]. And as you know from your readings in [[Urantia Text|The Urantia Book]], there is no [[existence]] apart from the social entity from which you come, for then you lose identity and the meaningfulness of your [[existence]] and the way of maximizing the [[potential]] that lies within you.

Therefore, these influences, these philosophies will guide your mental [[health]] programs, your [[emotional]] development programs for the right [[growth]] of individuals. So too, will people need to know that they have a meaningful contribution to make and to [[participate]] through their employment. Most everyone will feel a [[connection]] to all others, even when they are on a tractor in the midst of a very large field, that they are making a contribution that day to the sustenance and [[maintenance]] of their [[community]] and to the larger state. You do not need to be a [[physician]] or an [[educator]] to make these contributions or to feel that, but to know that you are there. And whereas today, your meaningfulness is measured in [[monetary]] terms, in the [[future]], your contributions will be measurable not only in the [[quality]] of your life, but in the quality of your [[thoughts]], the quality of your [[presence]] and the sureness of your presence therein in the [[community]].
