Though we are but souls disguised as humans, the notion of our separateness from others permeates most of what we do and think. It is visceral.
Not only do we separate ourselves from the other, a stranger, but we often separate ourselves from our *loved* ones, too, when they go on pushing the wrong buttons for too long.
It’s not our fault – really it’s not.
This way of thinking has been passed on to us through the millennia and, tragically, it would appear that this patterned thinking is perpetual. And the more I read, the more I think and the more I believe that it is this way of thinking above all other that keeps true happiness on the threshold of our homes and of our hearts.
