Legal Matters: Collaboration in the Health Freedom Movement: A Source of Power and Healing

摘要

People love to collaborate if it gets them to where they want to go. That is because it provides unusual opportunities for powerful results. But results may not be the only benefit of collaborative efforts. Often, participants find that collaboration provides opportunities for personal and organizational growth, pride and satisfaction, a sense of belonging and community, and gaining an understanding of one's role and value in the community. These benefits can serve as powerful tools in getting to where one wants to go in the future beyond the circumstances at hand, and collaborators find that, because of these benefits, "once a collaborator, always a collaborator."Collaborators reflect the energy and reality that we live in community, and that it serves us and brings us satisfaction to cooperate with each other to achieve our common goals. From families working together in getting children out the door to school in the morning, to international assembly members debating globalization versus local control, collaboration is a natural tool to help us live in harmony.
