What is Shared Air?

A compound comprised of four elements

Authenticity
Simplicity
Community
Legacy

Shared Air describes the common congruences that we have as human beings, across generations and cultures. The idea has a certain biological parallel: The molecules of air you and I breathe -- the oxygen, nitrogen, carbon dioxide and so forth -- are not new, but merely recycled and reused. The air you and I breathe today is not only shared between you and I, it was also breathed in and out by Abraham Licncoln, Elizabeth I and Alexander the Great and everybody, famous and not, in between, before and after. There's much more to it, many implications and explorations. Do any come to your mind?

For our first post, we'll stop here and add as we go. Thanks for reading.
