Community, Connection and Collective identity

I’m exploring Community, connection, and collective identity through the lens of being an individual with a crowd. These concepts play a crucial role in shaping our social interactions and sense of belonging. Its deeply fascinating that a community of people can share a story or passion that is so important to them that it defines an aspect of who they are. Those people build the shared story archetypes of that community into their sense of self, they build the history of those communities into their own personal history; and they can see the world through the lens of those shared stories. Through community, individuals can build meaningful relationships, collaborate on projects, and engage in activities that promote personal growth and well-being.
