"We cannot live only for ourselves. A thousand fibers connect us with our fellow men….." -Herman Melville We move in and around other people each day. Some people seem very familiar although they are strangers. Others, who we know, present characteristics that make us shake our heads. We are all connected. We have minerals from the Earth as part of our body. Our blood flows red from the iron in it. We have the same basic DNA structure. We are educated from birth to be able to fend for our selves. And, the older we get, the more alone we feel. We feel the separateness of our experiences. We feel the isolation of our schedules. We feel defeated by life, at times, and then ride the crest of the wave of joy when something wonderful happens. We are unique. When we finally realize that we must connect because we are connected, we are amazed at the experience. It is good. Namaste
