Connection

Life on Earth has gone forward since the beginning to this current moment. It has been unfolding in great explosive surges of pulsing energy. Looking at that parade of time and events, I wonder what my role has been. Am I connected to all that has been and ever will be? Do I join in with my short burst of energy in this brief moment? What does this life that I live require of me? And at what level do I call forth the answers? Because I am somehow joined to everything that has ever been or ever will be, I was there at the beginning and will be there at the very end. Moment by moment the challenges present themselves and moment by moment I am called upon to respond. And it seems that each singular response is part of the grand eternal response, the song that we all sing. When I respond with love and compassion the energy within and without grows brighter and when I respond with negativity and separateness the energy grows darker. And it seems that that participation in energy extends in all directions and across time and space. It is awesome and humbling to participate in this eternal flow of life and energy. It means that there is every moment a choice to support and enlarge the flow of positive energy or contract and reduce the flow. I see it all as a great breathing in and out, a great pulse of life reflecting the united massive flow of light and darkness.
