Community is like a quilt—stitched together with care, effort, and love. Each person is a piece of fabric, big or small, that adds to its beauty and strength. A healthy community offers warmth in hard times, pride in its making, and comfort to share with others. But when parts turn toxic—like a quilt torn or moulded—it can harm more than help. Still, it’s never too late to stitch anew and create something extraordinary.
