. . A brief comment .

#

Reading alone is really amazing MOOK, it knows the direction of power more and more, and it is more and more eclectic. Although literature didn't win the first place, I clearly saw that it was on the right path. The gloom, bitterness, suffering and death in this issue are all "true things".

#

See the uneven world.

#

The topic selection angle is very large, which broadens the non-fiction horizon. I like the article British Folk Observation best. In this context, how to "move".

#

This book reminds us that even in the picturesque false prosperity, we should find and know the boundaries of the real world. In the farthest corner, there are also souls worthy of attention.

With interest, I sorted out the civil society involved.

Friends of the Library, which has the right to manage the village library, holds international book week, various children's activities and a monthly reading meeting (reading and collective discussion) every year. The place where children and bookworms read books, the place where unemployed people surf the Internet and have heating, the place where homeless people wash and dress, and it is also the information center of the community. Maintain the water, electricity and heating expenditure of the library by selling used books, cakes, donating money and singing at Oktoberfest, antique auto show and country music festival.

In addition to Christmas, the "Day Center" holds Tuesday activity days for more than 30 elderly people in the village all the year round, providing morning tea, lunch, afternoon tea, crossword puzzles, crossword puzzles, playing cards, interesting questions and answers and so on. Take the old people to the gardening market at Christmas, prepare Christmas dinner for the old people, and prepare Christmas gifts for the volunteers and the old people.

"Imam Wanderer's Home Chain", the wanderers recycle, repair and renovate all the old things, raise chickens and pigs with the money from selling the old things, grow crops and stand on their own feet.

In the nature protection group, each person pays a very low club fee to maintain the website, publish a quarterly magazine, hold lectures, and maintain the hardware and laws of the village nature reserve. The village nature reserve is a 9-acre forest, which was founded by the British Woodland Foundation, villagers' donations, parish councils, local governments and other funds to buy land.

"Living by Forest" purchased 1 10,000 mu of land with donations, and transformed it into the world's first "Return to Wild Forest Center" within 12 years.

"Re-imagine the resource center", buy extra food from nearby supermarkets, open community canteens, and give them away for free or sell them at ultra-low prices.

"Cambridge Holiday Orchestra" provides music lessons for children at a low tuition fee, which is used to pay the rent of the venue and the salary of the music teacher. The behind-the-scenes operation team takes nothing.

The "National Bicycle Lane Network" builds bicycle lanes and wheelchair lanes to minimize the interference with wildlife and connect fields, rivers, forests, villages and towns.

"From 20 18 to 20 19, 36% of British people worked in at least one club irregularly."

"Nearby", a community with a sense of belonging in psychological displacement, refers to those places and people that are directly related to your daily life, and refers to the real connection between individuals and the world. Through neighborhood relations, individuals can express their feelings and ideas and get real feedback.

Besides meaningful work in life, there are other connections with people. Based on the deep cultivation of social relations, sharing public resources and jointly improving public space is a tiny process in which raindrops and streams meet.

These non-governmental organizations are similar to our non-profit organizations, but the number and coverage, public participation and operating philosophy are much higher than ours.

I have learned and been taught. Thank you for reading alone. I hope there are more such true stories.

. . Pay attention to friends? Come across a good book. .
