Ellen this writing is illuminating, this line stood out for me for sure. “heavy, toxic substances to numb the pain of perceived separation” funny enough this line was in parentheses. Upon reflection it seems everything in our lives and in society is a ritual of that very thing, Separation…it’s not as simple as it seems to feel or “be” connected to all creation. There seems to be a very well constructed system to keep us (multi dimensional beings)from realizing our true potential..hmmm..

I am happy to have read this writing. So much love and ever connectedness.

Yes Theresa, thank you for highlighting what I had in parentheses! In order to realize our true connection, we may have to first realize the illusion of separation! xoxoxo

Thanks Ellen! Thoreau said it well, "Time is but the stream I go a-fishing in..." (Of course as vegans we don't torture fish, but the stream metaphor is beautiful....)

I am enjoying my new small town on the beautiful, peaceful Raisin River.
