Upcoming events:

• Sunday April 12: Community Season 22 kickoff
• Friday April 24: public IS Connection Call

Last week's newsletter was Overreaching and clarifying and there was no Community Call last Sunday (Easter).

Community Calls restart this Sunday, kicking off our 22nd season of "being who we want to be" together. If you've been wanting to grow in community, now's a great time to start. (If you're uncertain how, reply to this email!)

The IS Web app saw its first commits this week — okay the first 50 were from me (and Opus) but our 5-person Dev Team is booting up and ready to build!

The Intentional Ventures collective had a banger of a Giving & Receiving practice last Friday, 170 asks and offers in that system.

Joining our newly-launched Web/network/alliance enables not just Community access, not just other programs like pods and mixers, but trust-guided visibility into people and projects, catalyzing collaboration in doing what we value.

And all of this activity... what you see here is "the tip of the iceberg" — actually of two icebergs, in two dimensions. The first under-the-water mass is the inner life of every person involved. What we do flows out of who we are, and the awareness-consciousness-presence of our every moment is fundamentally sourcing everything that we do. The second iceberg (greater invisible mass) is all the projects and doings that don't get bubbled up, broadcast, in this weekly newsletter (why? why?) about headline-y and invitation-y stuff: Karla's script. Pat's tutoring. Alexis's group. Ed's writing. Jochen's podcast. Barbara's singing. Bob's students. Teresa's household relating. Rossi's photography. Christine's dancing. Bobby's listening. Every person I can think of (and I've skipped a bunch from privacy and uncertainty) has something they love flowing through them, a whole world of passion projects and beauty and goodness, there's so much happening when we open our eyes and let it in.

Seeing, and weaving, this web is the purpose of naming a "Web" — cultivating and densifying what already exists, in us and outside us and between us. May we let love see through our eyes.

Blessings,
James
