Being connected to people and animals and places has always been immediate and imperative.

But the word by itself is inadequate. It’s actually more than just an  awareness of the other being or place. It’s a deeply rooted feeling, a knowing that is undeniable.  

For as long as I can remember, I have felt deeply connected… To everything and almost everyone.

I remember meeting people when I was a young child. Almost everyone felt like family to me… Like we should all just always be together. It was difficult for me to understand why we weren’t with all of these people all of the time.

Every animal that I met, felt like family also. I wanted to take every single one of them home with me… And still do.

Whenever I travel, each place whether, new or old feels like a return home

The first time that I heard the Muslim call to prayer, it felt like something inside of me awakened… Like I was being called home.

And the first time that I heard spoken Hebrew, my eyes filled with tears because I recognized that it was part of me.

Each time that I hear someone speaking in a foreign language, I feel as though I should innately be able to understand and speak back to them in their native tongue.

I believe that this is part of what ONENESS is. And that the world would be so much better off if we all consciously cultivated sincere connections.

I’m glad you’re here💜
