Something Greater: The Power of Playing and Creating Together

Building the beloved community isn’t child’s play, or is it? Sharing, taking turns, compromising, cooperating, and collaborating aren’t always easy, but they are key parts of relating to others and forging meaningful relationships. The beloved community is too large and complex to be accomplished without them. So, whether we are playing games, creating art together, or cultivating a sense of community, when we work together towards a shared experience, something transformative happens: we find that our whole is greater than the sum of each of our individual parts.
