Visionary Society
 

Create a new Valentine’s Day
Category: Culture


In public spaces, and a variety of learning meetings and celebrations, explore the meaning of relationship and raise the possibility of true friendship.
The event is composed of two parts. Meetings to explore the meaning of love, compassion, forgiveness, non-violence, Friendshape, etc. An evening Celebration of the Good, to read aloud beautiful works about relationship in an informal setting. And Public action, to publicize this alternative ‘holiday’ in public spaces.
Request to florists and any store or organization promoting Valentine’s day, to explore the deeper side.

“Sex education is properly education in the capacity to love and not in how to make love.” Allen Bloom

How to facilitate a meeting
Each meeting should have a place for Visionary society tools such as Reflect (seeing your own position inside of this mess) and Explore (entertain positions you oppose). Most of all, meetings should create a climate of affection and reflection. We want to create a space for an unexpected solution.
Celebration of the Good.

What is a Guide?
Want to help create Visionary society in your community? Select a project that you care about.
A Guide is sensitive to the lives of others, an alternative to the myriad of professionals who are paid to compensate for dysfunction: security guards, police, therapists, psychiatrists, social service workers, life coaches, shamans. Guides are catalysts.
Most important, the Guide provides moral support and facilitates communication with anyone interested in the project.
Are you interested? This position is right for you if:
• You want to take an active role in bringing thoughtfulness and awareness to your community.
• You have decent written communication skills.
• You understand and support the work of Visionary Society, and have a special interest in this Project.
