people finding open spaces

Finding enough time and open space in each day to think creatively, to contemplate what is true, beautiful, and inspiring, and to engage in the lives of the people around us seems to be some of the biggest challenges we all regularly face.  These activities, and why we do them, are some of the issues of conversation at our gatherings - as we investigate practical opportunities to assist and help people in need within our circles of acquaintances, those at our places of employment, the people just down the hall, in our neighbourhoods, and those people we just seem to be lead to care for and love.  Something More is what we wish would happen to us each time we need encouragement or practical help.  Something More was established, having tasted of the aloneness and need for friendship and community (even living in a crowded city), to be the second family many of us desire.
