 The "Commons" are the natural and cultural resources accessible to all members of a society (Bollier, 2002).

-As a way of thinking about the commons, consider these short examples of Finland's jokamiehenoikeus "every man's rights" or right to roam: in the countryside, anyone may freely walk, ski or cycle where this does not damage the natural environment or the landowner. As long as the plants and fungi in question are not protected species, one may collect wild berries, mushrooms and flowers (Ymparisto, 2011).+As a way of thinking about the commons, consider these short examples of Finland's //jokamiehenoikeus,// "every man's rights" or right to roam: in the countryside, anyone may freely walk, ski or cycle where this does not damage the natural environment or the landowner.

 What happens when people are considered to be taking more than their fair share of berries? What exactly is a fair share of the commons and, if the commons is owned by everyone, who can make that definition?

 There are the mutable qualities that can be adopted to get yourself, your project or your meal through to the other side of a challenging situation and then there are inherent attributes you must maintain in order to keep your self [sic], your project or your meal true to its origins. It could be that being a Resilient is partly about knowing how to identify these two: the variables and the constants. There are the mutable qualities that can be adopted to get yourself, your project or your meal through to the other side of a challenging situation and then there are inherent attributes you must maintain in order to keep your self [sic], your project or your meal true to its origins.

 This basic salad can be augmented with grated radish, celeriac or apple. Should seeds and nuts be available, toast and add them to the mix. Dried fruit such as sultanas and cranberries are also delicious. Mix mustard or horseradish into the dressing. If you remember to buy mayonnaise feel free to mix it into the dressing too.  This basic salad can be augmented with grated radish, celeriac or apple.
