We all exist within communities or groups of various sizes, origins, and purposes; pick one and tell us why it is important to you, and how it has shaped you.
The family is the basic form of community. It's where we all come from and where our fundamental self and identity is shaped. The way my parents treated me has made into a person who treats others the same way I was treated while I was growing up. The values that our family upheld, stayed with me until now.
