This week presentation
Try questioning THE INEVITABLE!
Euripides* suggested, “Question everything, learn something, answer nothing…”
It is seldom that an adult openly questions what is commonly considered inevitable! Why? Young children question what adults consider inevitable. (Why do we get sick? Why do we die?) Could we adults be overlooking something or misreading the evidence or something else? What could happen if I honestly questioned what most people consider inevitable?

How the Government works
Joining us will be a number of representatives from the municipality of Chapala and the delegation of Ajijic. Our Expat Liason Ricardo will introduce us to the various components of the government that are here to serve all of us who live hare at Lakeside.
Many Expats are not familiar with how to access city services and how to deal with emergencies. This presentation will walk us through the various programs and the right place to go for things that come up.

About Open Circle
For nearly 30 years, the Lake Chapala area has been honored to host Mexico’s longest-standing weekly English language lecture series. Begun in 1995 by volunteers under the title of “New Dimensions” and initially focused on various aspects of spirituality, in 2001 the program became “Open Circle” and was hosted in homes and restaurants. The Lake Chapala Society became Open Circle Ajijic’s permanent home in the early 2000’s and (since 20021) has become an official Lake Chapala Society program.
Mission Statement:
“Open Circle Ajijic provides a supportive environment to gather for social interaction and to improve our understanding of ourselves, our community, and our world. Presentations span a wide range of intellectual, cultural, physical, and spiritual topics. We do not necessarily agree with the ideas and philosophies of our presenters. We encourage you to listen with an open mind and form your own opinions.”
