| Are You Connected? |

Often we go through life in a solitary fashion, choosing to stay on a metaphorical island, instead of reaching out to others. Many of us feel safer this way and more in control of our lives, our destiny. The problem is, we are battling against something that already exists - a connection to all life. It is part of the natural order of this Universe that we relate to one another, that we interract. By trying to isolate ourselves, we are working against this natural order, and it will only serve to frustrate us and cause us harm. The next time you are tempted to judge another or attempt to distance yourself in some way from others, try to switch your paradigm to see yourself connected to everyone around you: strangers, family, close friends, those you hate, those you love...those who make you angry and shake your head. Tap into this natural connection, and see if you don't feel a new power infuse you with a sense of love and understanding. Living your life in such a manner releases stress and brings a smile to your face and peace to your heart, because you will be living in accord with the natural order of the Universe that calls us all to connect. As much as possible, tread lightly on this Earth and the Earth will tread lightly on you. Do so by following its laws, one of which is to connect with all. |
