When people are excluded, they feel 'bad'. Inclusion is the precondition for learning, happiness - for healthy living. Exclusion is the precondition for misery, loneliness and trouble. We know teenagers often choose to die - rather than be alone. Belonging is NOT incidental - it is primary to our existence.
Inclusion is the foundation of the house.
It is not a guarantee, but rather a precondition for the growth and development of full and healthy human beings. Dictionaries also help. Inclusion is a wonderful word. It is about embracing humanity and figuring out how we are going to live WITH one another in the challenging years to come.
