You don’t join a community because it makes things easy. You join it because it makes things better.
It’s not easy to find group consensus.
It’s not easy to let every voice be heard.
It’s not easy to coordinate schedules.
It’s not easy to sit with hard questions.
It’s not easy to embrace those who are different.
It’s not easy to move in the same direction.
It’s not easy to wait for everyone else.
But it’s better.
