to respect one another and to try not to become too tribal, you know, at least in my community or whatever.
It's like, I'm always like, if we don't want to get too tribal, we don't want to close ourselves off and say that we're this because we believe this, or, you know, we're living life better because of this.
It's like, no, it's like, we'll always have that.
Like we need to remain open to others.
And not necessarily to join the tribe, but just like to kind of recognize other tribes doing similar things, you know?
And so I think community is incredibly important because it makes life fun, you know, and and.
It reinforces, essentially, like you were saying, there's mirrors around us.
And for the cleaner the mirrors, like the quality of people that we have, we're clean mirrors for one another, or what I call mirror plus.
So it's like we're reflecting, but we're also giving ourselves in part of the reflection.
And if we're doing that with each other, it's like we have this hyper, hyper strengthened communal identity.
And I think...
You know, operating through the world with that kind of energy, people recognize it or they're curious about, like, why are you like this and so forth.

It's contagious.
And so I think, yeah, community is super important because the world, again, the way it's designed, it's a great design.
It can make people feel siloed, compartmentalized, or that they feel like they should be siloed or compartmentalized because they're
it's a tough world out there and you got to really rely on yourself or like just got your four people that you dig, you dig with.
And that's it.
Cause everybody else is, you know, whatever it is.
Um, but when you kind of like get over that, it's a slightly silly notion, but like when you figure out a way and I have compassion for it, but I'm just saying like, it is ultimately silly.
