== Invitation ==
You are receiving this invitation because we would like to see you at [[Seed 2011]]. [[Seed 2011]] is a retreat and [[OpenSpace]] event hosted by the [[SolSeedMovement]].
(insert theme question here)
If you are planning to attend add yourself to [[Seed 2011/Participants|the participants list]].
== Theme ==
All of our SolSeed [[OpenSpace]] events have had a theme:
:* [[Seed 2009]]: What does it mean to Bring Life to each of us, to all of us, and to the entire Galaxy?
:* [[Sol 2009]]: Who are we? As Life, as individuals on a spiritual journey, and as members and friends of the [[SolSeed Movement]]?
:* The first [[Longest Night Festival]]: Who are we becoming? What are we doing next?
This year at Seed 2011 we'll be <big>starting with Space and working back to here and now ... what do we want for community?</big>
* If you could build any living situation (community or otherwise) for yourself ... what would you build?
* What would your community look like on Earth?
* What if your community were a spaceship?
* How can we live this vision here and now?
* How can we support one another in living our values?
