Nothing Gold Can Stay

by

Robert Frost

What is an Analogy for community?

I like to use the Fire Triangle as an analogy for Community. For a Fire to exist there has to be present, Oxygen, Heat and lastly Fuel. Take one away and the fire ceases to exist, conversely to keep a fire going you need to keep up all of these three elements. For a community to exist you need, Love, Passion and People. You can swap Oxygen for Love, Heat for Passion and Fuel for People. Take one away and the Community ceases to exist.
