You make the Davis Island Neighborhood a Great Community
Most of us use the month of December as a time of reflection. We think about where we have been over the past year, and where we hope to go next year.
We find ourselves thinking about others, too. We give thanks for the great friends and family in our lives, and offer well-wishing thoughts of hope, love and prosperity. And we also consider those less fortunate than us. Perhaps we’ll make significant donations to a local charity, or donate our various skills in a volunteer effort to help those who need assistance.
I like to think about community. I feel that we are all in this together – not only friends, family, and business partners – but also that person you don’t know sitting across the room from you, the bad driver you try to avoid each morning, clerks who don’t speak clearly, and the guys who are trying to sell you something. We are all in the same boat, simply trying to get by the best way we know how.
This time of year, it’s easy to give a little extra. An extra smile, nod, or “hello.” An extra couple of seconds before blasting the horn. An extra moment of attention to understand. An extra minute to really listen. And all of that helps to make this one of the best times of the year.
We here at the Davis Islands Community News like to think we are good at all of that. But just like you, we are not perfect. So we put an emphasis on Community. We want an emphasis on Listening. We try to put an emphasis on Conversation. And when all of us do this together throughout the entire year, we show other neighborhoods why Davis Islands is one of the best places to live in the world.
That is why we created DavisIslandsToday.com. Your thoughts and ideas are important, and valuable to the community as a whole. Please take the time to not only read this website, but to add to the conversation in any way you see fit. We have a couple of ideas on what belongs here, but we would prefer to hear of what you think should be here, and what should be in the real world.
