Just a moment's thought. By Scuba Steve

It's been some time now that I have been staying at Occupy New Haven (O.N.H.).  There has been a lot of experiences that I've never had the option to try, but I've done them here.  I've found my stay here in this Occupy has been one that I will never forget. It truly has moved me, inspired me, in a way that I will never get out of my mind.

• Be you.
• Do good for others.
• Cherish your community.

These are just some of the concepts that they've showed me.

Not to mention the amount of people that are with this movement. The crazy walks were you feel the voice of a crowd talking in unison.  Where you feel the entire body vibrating because all the people chanting, yelling, becoming one.  Being able to see an entire society be created, all on the same or a similar basis.

More deeply into the people of this place...  there are huge variety of people staying, or passing through.  People yelling nonsense out there, cuts to the occupants passing by from other occupies.  The majority's people are great. "Inspiring individuals" is the best way to describe them.  People that find it easy to talk to others, to show other people that what they are living in is a horrible scam.

The living style is unique also.  Tents on the city green.  Communities within other communities.  One based solely on greed and the other exact opposite.  At the present moment I am learning about this movement and other movements like it, in the United States and other places.

To be continued. . .
