Happiness and its causes - Part 2 Community

An interesting look our modern day houses and how community, even church, is a good thing. Happiness and its causes - Part 2 Community

When you take the time to listen to the Happiness experts, a repeated theme is the vital place of community.
We have bunkered down in private castles and the refuge of a controlled environment untrammelled by the muddy shoes of neighbourhood children. Remote controlled garage doors mean we don’t even have to risk a conversation with nearby residents before pulling down the shutters and retreating to our sanctuaries.
But there is lots of evidence that community is not only good for us, but we are longing for it.
