We all sat in a circle and really opened up our hearts and minds. I kicked off the night with a discussion on society and my thoughts about how I feel that society has immense control over the minds of so many people, to the point that most people don’t even know it. Going through life, following orders, and living through other people’s plans.

Little things make a large difference. I often think that so much has to be done for change to happen, but change happens with the little things: with a simple change in a lifestyle habit or thinking a little more about others or any other seemingly small step towards positive change. Our gathering started off with discussing a separate issue, Death, and how too many people are so paralyzed by the fear of it that they seek to latch on to anything that gives them a sense of being a part of something bigger...

So what happened last night!? We spoke, we shared thoughts, played some chess, I learned more about photography from Amy, Melissa taught people all about patents, Avi gave a talk on “Naked Functionality,” I gave a discussion on “Samadhi,” Orian spoke about the world of RSS, Mike discussed his site “Swarrm.” And the list goes on. Etc… Etc… Basically, a bunch of people came together to be intellectually entertained and that’s exactly what happened.

We had another successful gathering the other night down in the the Lower East Side section of Manhattan. Though is was a smaller group, we had some really great conversations, brainstorm sessions, and a few inspirational presentations.
Our community is definitely gaining momentum and gaining strength here in the city. There are so many creative, disruptive, and innovative people in this city, and I’m really happy that some of them have been able to link up with Mind Petals Organization and add on to what we’re building.

Last week Tuesday, October 30th, we had our 4th Mind Petals NYC Gathering at the Gramstand Cafe. It was a rockin’ gathering with an excellent turnout of creative and inspiring people who had a lot to share with the community.
This gathering was special, because it was the first time we had a list of presenters to come up and speak about their ideas, that lasted anywhere from 5 - 10 minutes. In former meetings, ideas were shared, but usually among regular conversations throughout mini groups that formed.

We did it again. Last night was the second Mind Petals Mixup here in New York City. And I must say, it was awesome! With just over twenty young entrepreneurs, we had a great night of fun, food, drinks, and great conversations. You know, the sort of conversations that you're still thinking about when you get home.
