World Race.
Community.
What I have discovered over the past 7 months is that this type of community is like none-other.
Never before in my entire life have I had such an honest, genuine, loving, form of feedback, encouragement, and calling into greatness.
I like to call this form of community my 6-person marriage. Our family name is Kindle. We live, work, play, pray, eat, sleep, breathe — and just about everything else under the sun — together.
We do life together – 24/7. It’s communal living. And it’s hard. BUT. It’s worth it.
We share finances. We share bedrooms. We share bathrooms, deodorant, shampoo, food, ring-worm, stories, our entire lives…
Together we celebrate birthdays, holidays, and as many other occasions as possible.
We have started to sound alike — using the same phrases, sometimes finishing each others’ sentences. & sometimes, we have to take a step back & remember that we did have lives apart from each other pre-World Race.
We laugh together. We get annoyed with each other. We cry. We hug. We try to console each other. We get upset with each other – then we apologize for being rude. We forgive one another.
We travel together. We find cool things to do together. We rejoice with each others' victories. We.love.one.another.
We know when someone is having a bad day. We know when someone is having an amazing day. We begin and end each & every day together.
We speak life into one another.
We love each other enough to be honest & call each other into greatness.
We give/receive almost-constant feedback.
We love each other. We fight for each other.
My 6-person “marriage” is incredible.
I say all this to lead into my next blog series [okay, so I don’t think I’ve had a blog series before, but I’m starting now!]
With team changes just around the corner, I want to take the next couple of days/weeks to introduce you to the amazing people I’ve been doing life with for the past 5 months.
You’ll love them. I do! 🙂
