Why Xisti?
Why Xisti?
Xisti (pronounced zis-tee) is derived from the Greek xystus, defined as:
Among the ancient Greeks, a long covered portico or court used for athletic exercises; among the ancient Romans, an open colonnade, or walk planted with trees, used for recreation and conversation; hence occas. allusively.
The name represents what we hope this site will be and do. Which brings us to our purpose for creating Xisti.com …
The Xisti dream began with a group of people who met and became friends via an Internet community. As time passed, the circle of friends grew larger. It includes men and women of all ages from all around the world. As we got to know each other, we discovered many shared interests and ideals.
The most important of these is the belief that through communicating our hopes, dreams, fears, interest and beliefs, we form a connection that raises the consciousness of all. We hope to create a bond that transcends ages, genders and nationalities; one that inspires us to grow and to reach out to invite others into our community. We believe that collectively we can make a difference. We can be a force for improvement in the human condition and for restoration of our planet
Many people see the condition of our planet and its people and look to governments to provide the solution. We believe the solution can only come when each individual is conscious of those conditions and willing to contribute to a solution. And we believe that people can be a force for change and improvement. We want Xisti.com to be a forum to focus those people who want to begin and be part of that force.
