Our Creed I choose to be a common man It is my right to be entangled if I can I seek interdependence over maximalist growth I wish to be engaged in an ever expanding web of mutual care and endebtedness I want my contribution to flow in and out of a place of wholeseome connection Together with others we take risks when we see the potential for achieving progress for the whole We prefer the challenge of life to the guaranteed existence; the thrill of fulfilment to the stale calm of utopia - and we know where we can retreat to fo rest and regeneration after a great adventure. My freedom lies in knowing this home and caring for it, just as others do too - because we all know that we're better off when it does well. It is my heritage to stand erect, proud and unafraid, shoulder to shoulder with my brothers and sisters, sons and daughters, elders and ancestors, as far as the eye can see; to think and to act out of my own volition and to know that none of it is truly mine; to enjoy the benefit of creation and to multiply it for the enjoyment of others; to face the world humbly and say: this we have done.
