"Bound to suns and planets by invisible cords, I feel the flame of eternity in my soul." - Helen Keller

We are all connected. From the starving child who has no clean water who maybe will not make it to adulthood to the richest fat cat in the United States. From the staunch liberal to the farthest right winger. From the oldest living being to the newest soul born to earth. I think it is important to realize that we all share a common connection-we all have light inside of us- flowing from a pool of light that binds us. Sometimes it is imperative that we step outside of ourselves to see that even the person we resent the most is fighting battles within and dealing with the external world the best they know how. Living can be hard, but embracing our connectivity can sometimes be even harder. If we realize our togetherness, our separateness will cease to alienate us, if only for a moment.
