At the beginning of the year 2003 there is the growing sense among a great many in the community of "Cultural Creatives" around the planet that a threshhold has been reached; that it is somehow no longer necessary for us to "do our thing" in obscurity and isolation; that the time has come for us to reach out and touch each other, form links, and bonds, and networks with the capacity to carry and distribute mutual assistance and nourishment throughout the embrionic organism that is the "Awakening New Humanity." Many such networks exist already, some have been around for many years, and new ones are forming and expanding momently. Bravo! It is with exuberance and enthusiasm that we add our efforts to this process, for this is how the global mind forms, grows, and evolves an intentional, purposeful identity.

This page is dedicated to links with diverse "Cultural Creative" individuals and groups; to information about, or in aid of our multi-facited, multi-dimensional endeavors at nurturing the Planetary Awakening; and to Web sites bearing information useful or pertinent to these objectives. Participation is invited; please send contact information, comments, suggestions, etc. to: harmon@harmonhouse.net. Thank you.

• Invitation Letter, 19 January 2003: Many of us have reached the point of seeing that there are a mighty lot of individuals and groups scattered around the planet who, like ourselves, have been "waiting for the money," so we can go ahead and manifest our visions and start living our dreams. Yeah, sounds familiar, doesn't it?

• Information Provided by "YES" respondents to Raphael's letter mentioned above. "I am proposing the formation of an association of EcoVillages, EcoVisions or whatevers, and that we use the combined connectivity, creativity and resources to find access to those who have and/or know how to find the financial resources necessary to build this network of havens around the globe."

• Web Sites Suggested by respondents to Raphael's letter. Many such networks already exist, along with a great deal else of mutual aid and benefit. Here are a number of such which have been brought to our attention as a result of this initiative.

• Dear Friends, "A couple of weeks ago I received a letter from a correspondent who had evidently "reached the end of his rope," thrown up his hands in despair, and abandoned the visionary project he had been throwing "body and soul" into for the past 31 years. I myself was tardy in responding to his anguished letter, for frankly, I didn't immediately know what to say to him."
