shaping meaning
In today's busy and fragmented world Nexus provides meeting places where dialogue and sharing of life can take place.
Nexus assumes that life gets richer when we help one another make sense of life's experiences, both ups and downs. It facilitates networks where mutual learning and processing of life can be enjoyed.
Nexus also arranges events where important aspects and applications of its four central ideas are presented, discussed and deepened. Relevant ideas and experiences around these ideas are also discussed in the "Article" and "Library" sections of this site.
Nexus is a network of people who either through their professional or personal lives have seen the importance of creating settings where people can process their life experience. Nexus is connected with local groups and national organizations that may or may not carry the Nexus name. Our work and initiatives are mainly financed through private contributions.
Safe places. Life creates stories that need to be shared. We need to tell our stories in order to understand what is happening. We can only tell our stories when we feel safe to do so. Respect, trust and acceptance are the pillars of a safe place.
Journey. We are all on a life journey. If we observe, learn and discover while moving through life, we'll get enriched. A good journey helps us to go deeper to the sources of life, culture and beauty.
Story. Who we are, both what we value and dislike is best passed on through stories. Stories give us the opportunity to recognize and connect. They give us the freedom to identify or not. The stories of others equip us for living.
Meaning. Finding meaning helps us to act. It makes us learn. Meaning is the sense to see connections, as well as our place and significance within the course of life's events. We need others to shape meaning.
