I give the gift of Flame

Like the post on copyright, this is an odd post. It's more about the nuts and bolts instead of the structure itself.

But nuts and bolts are important, or there is no structure. Sure, a structure built this way, with anyone able to tack on pieces, isn't going to look the same as if it was designed and drafted by a single hand or group.

FlameKeeping is inherently built to include other people's ideas and contributions. It does not exist except as built by its followers. I feel incredibly strongly about this. The more you give to FlameKeeping, the more you get out of it. It's easy to say you're a member. It's incredibly hard to get your hands into the dirt and plant the seeds yourself.

We all explore the Universe our own way. This is a chance to share your viewpoint and bring it to others as we bring our viewpoints to you. I cannot emphasize enough how important this is to me. It's easy to say our viewpoint isn't meaningful and that we have nothing to contribute. But I don't think that's even remotely reasonable. We are all the eyes and hands of the Divine. We all have minds to think and hands to act. Every time we say we have nothing to share, we denigrate the Divine.

I challenge every person reading this to come up with a way to share their view of the Divine and to find a way to make it grow.
