Commune

Years ago, friends of mine came up with the idea of living in a commune after college. This was a much better idea than my high school friends’ idea of living in a co-ed convent. Given recent events, I’m floating the idea again.

If you were going make a commune, where would found it? What would be the purpose of the commune? Who would you invite? Who would you exclude?

    I also discussed a commune for after-college purposes. Funny that.

    I think I would want the commune near the Sierras, maybe in Oregon. We would have horses and grow organic vegetables. The purpose would be to enjoy life and live free. We would read all the time, and write books, and have philosophical discussions.

    I would probably hate it though, because I love living in a city.

    I think a bunch of our friends from college DO live in a commune. They just don’t call it that. ;)
