“We are like islands in the sea, separate on the surface but connected in the deep.” ~William James I think if we really thought about this sentence we would realize all kinds of things. Actions are not separate from intentions, we are only as free as our neighbour is , and that what I do in the world directly impacts others. I think if we could see how we are fundamentally connected and that how we act in the world matters....we could start to see our world a little differently and thus hopefully, start to live a little differently.

This great blog post express this sentiment and the forces behind it in a more beautiful and impactful way than almost anywhere else.

Impossible.

Don't treat others how you don't want to be treated.
