Tribe of One Love

THE BONFIRE: BACK BY POPULAR DEMAND!
Across time and culture, people have gathered around fire to share stories, speak truth, and remember what matters. The Bonfire carries this spirit forward—not with logs and flames, but with hearts ignited by honesty and human connection.

After a powerful and heartfelt launch, The Bonfire returns to In Vino Veritas for a second evening of true stories, soulful conversation, and deep community connection. Whether you came to the first event or are joining us for the first time, you're invited to gather with us again for a night of meaning, laughter, and belonging.

• A cozy, welcoming space in the wine bar—come as you are, settle in, and connect with others.
• True stories told live—honest, moving, and shared by everyday people from our community.
• Guided moments of reflection and conversation to spark insight and deepen connection.

Tribe of One Love invites you into a circle of connection and reflection as we explore what one love and a higher love for all might look like in our lives, families, and communities.

Our mission is to foster meaningful connection and inspire transformation—both personal and collective—through love-centered conversations. Our vision is a world where love, joy, and mutual support reign in relationships, families, and communities.

Objectives of this Discussion

• Reflect on what higher love means to you and how it shows up in daily life.
• Explore how love can become more than a feeling—how it can be a cultural norm, unite us to oneness, guide our choices, and shape our communities.
• Imagine together what a society rooted in higher love might look like, and share steps we can take to bring it into reality.

Why Join?
We live in a time of division and distraction. This is an opportunity to pause, listen, and speak from the heart. Together we will hold space to envision the ideal and consider how we can make it real—rippling transformation into our homes, workplaces, and the wider world.

Reflections Prior to Joining:
Before you arrive, take a moment to ask yourself:

• What does one love mean to you?
• What does that look like in your life if you fully embraced it?
• What practices or changes would help you live a higher love?

What to Expect
This is a heart-centered conversation where every voice matters, every story is honored, and together we practice the art of listening deeply, without judgment. Come ready to share, to be inspired, and to imagine a more loving future—one conversation at a time.

Tribe of One Love Invitation & Community Guidelines

• We are rooted in love, curiosity, and growth.
  We’re here to reflect, share, and expand our awareness together—not to debate, persuade, or convert.
• We are a nonpartisan, non-denominational space.
  People from all walks of life are welcome. Personal experiences may include politics or religion, but no ideology—political, religious, or otherwise—should be promoted or belittled.
• We show up as both teachers and students.
  Please review any shared resources before the session. We look forward to hearing your reflections, reactions, and perspectives. While we explore different perspectives, you are encouraged to take in what speaks to you and release what doesn’t.
• Speak from personal experience.
  Use “I” language. Share what’s true for you without trying to fix, assume, advise, or preach—unless invited. Avoid stating opinions as facts. When you frame your truth as your experience, it leaves room for others to share theirs.
• Avoid assumptions.
  Don’t assume others share your background, values, or beliefs. Our diversity is a strength. Speaking as if we all think alike can make others feel excluded or unsafe.
• You are welcome to bring your real experiences—with purpose.
  If you’ve ever felt unseen, misunderstood, or worn down by life and the state of the world, you are not alone. Bring what’s real in the spirit of healing and learning. We name pain, not to vent or complain without direction, but to seek clarity, understanding, and transformation.
• Practice equity of voice.
  Be mindful of how much space you’re holding. If you speak often, consider stepping back. If you’re usually quiet, know your voice matters—we’d love to hear from you.
• Welcome disagreements as part of growth.
  When conflict arises, pause. Acknowledge what others are sharing, and respond with curiosity, not certainty. Aim for connection, not correction.
• Let this space ripple outward.
  What’s learned here, we hope transforms not only ourselves, but our families, communities, and beyond. This space is sacred—not because it is perfect, but because we hold it together.
