Dear cj,
After having been in Ireland for two years (which has comparatively
few financial resources) and then visiting New Hampshire for two weeks
(which has comparatively few imagination resources), I arrived here in Bay
Area. And a crazy idea occurred to me.
Here we have an area with lots of money and creative people, a
great climate, water and mountains, and apparently a frantic desire to
"live the good life". My question is "Why isn't the Bay Area trending
toward a local paradise?". Why doesn't the "community" use its resources
to make life really agreeable?
Perhaps there's a preliminary question... Is the place already a
paradise? After all there are freeways to go everywhere, plenty of
espresso & sushi bars, and infinite shopping opportunities. Is this our
idea of paradise? If not, then what is?
Has anyone thought about this? Is there a "Paradise Plan"
somewhere? Is anyone interested in this topic?
