Everything is connected

in #philosophy6 years ago
Imagine a world where you are never alone and everything is connected with your being. Imagine a place where your body is made of stardust and your thoughts are sending tiny little electrical signals which vibration gently corresponds to frequencies of everything in nature. Imagine a world where your surroundings have an answer to your every question. Wouldn't all that be lovely? Here is a secret, you already live in that world.

When you become aware of your connection with everything in the Universe, something in you changes, something snaps and transforms. You become more attuned to energies that were once only a distant wishful thinking. Greed, corruption, violence, deception are products that lack of understanding of that connection produced.

There are only two paths to follow,
one of fear and one of love.
Both are labyrinths.

We are all made of tiny little particles called electrons. There are even smaller ones, but let's stay on electrons for the purpose of this post, it will be easier for me to explain. Everything is made of electrons, everything. From the Sun and stars to plants and animals, man-made things and even us humans. We all have electrons as our building blocks. Those electrons are the same for every element. If you look at hydrogen or oxygen or even gold, same electrons.

From the very beginning of this Universe, there is no creating or destroying energy. Energy can not be destroyed but it can change shapes and forms. What is in you now was once in stars. Electrons that are a part of you, millions and millions of them, were once in the big bang. You are a part of something magnificent and ancient and yet, you are unique and there is no one like you.

There is only ONE you
in this entire Universe.

The only thing that is separating you from the screen that you are reading this text from is how those electrons are aligned. You are you and I am me because electrons have aligned differently in our bodies. Those electrons are tricky little things. They do not move. They appear and disappear. One moment electron is in one place and just a moment later it is in another. When we are talking about electron placement, we are talking about probabilities to find them in a certain position. You are made of electrons, remember? How amazing is that? Your entire existence is magnificent beyond words.

This world is blessed with you.
This world needs exactly you.

When you realize that everything in the Universe is connected you will accept both your insignificance and understand your importance in it. You are so little and yet so important. Every person you ever encountered is enriched with that experience. You have changed more lives than you realize. You have changed them with your words, actions and sometimes just by being there. Every person on this planet knows something you do not and you know something that none of us do. Our different experiences and thoughts are a treasure this existence holds. Cherish that fact.

Every decision you make has consequences. From the moment you open your eyes in the morning, you are making choices. The way you stand up from your bed, your coffee and breakfast choices, what clothes to wear, how to act around certain people, which road to take, what food to buy, how to perform with your obligations, how to talk, when to smile, and the most important thing of all, how and what to think. You are choosing your thoughts. No one is choosing them for you.

You have only a limited width of perception. It is restricted by your skill to predict outcome only a couple of moves ahead. In your maze, you can see only your first choices of movement, going in one of four directions at every crossing. If you were given an ability to rise above the labyrinth, who knows what you would see. Well, actually... The thing you would see is that every road leads to the center. There is no one right way to walk through your maze, everything will lead you to the core. Some paths are shorter, some longer. There are those who are easier and those which will give you trouble but all are there for you to choose from. You are the sole decision maker. Only you.


Your freedom of thought
can be a burden or a blessing.

The choice is yours.

You are free. Free to think and free to act as you please. Your every thought and your every move come with a risk of having negative consequences. This can seem scary at first but when you realize that failures are always lessons and always positive in their way of leading you forward, it is a liberating discovery. Accept your responsibility. Your life is yours and yours alone. No one is to blame but you for everything that is happening to you. Your decisions led you here, and your decisions will get you out of any situation you find yourself in.

You may be in situations or places that you do not want to be, some people have maybe hurt you, and your physical, emotional and mental well-being may be jeopardized. Trust me, there is always a way out. You cannot control the world but you can control how you behave in it. Some decisions may seem hard at first but only because our brains are wired in a way that hates change.

You are not your brain!

Synapses in your brain are hard to brake but it is possible. It may feel like you are drowning in your misery but only because you are choosing to be stiff and sink to the bottom. Swing your arms and legs a little and the water will naturally bring you up to the surface. Life is like that. It is supportive of you and your every need. Every turn in that maze you take will lead you somewhere. You will never stop.

This life, this planet, and this Universe provides for everything. Your maze is endless and with your every step you are creating more and more passages. You are generating them as consequences of your previous decisions. Follow your intuition. Choose love instead of fear and the Universe will provide, it always does. You are more capable than you think. You are a star kid, and you are supposed to shine. Shine away.

Whatever beliefs you hold dear to your heart and whatever religion you feel like you belong to, you will never cease to exist. Even if you are an atheist, your body will transform after you die and your energy will be transformed into something else. Millions of electrons that are you will not disappear, they will align differently and become something else.

One way or another, you are an infinite being. I will not go into your personal religious beliefs because I respect them whatever they are but I will say this to you; love is at the core of every spiritual path. Sometimes it feels like we have to dig really deep to find it but it is there. Over the years, major religions were corrupted by men seeking profit but their message of love remains strong for all that are willing to listen. So many wise people walked this Earth before us and so many left as a legacy of leaving that same message to our children, a message of love.

Love is a strong force. It creates worlds. It is endless and powerful with her healing abilities. The Universe loves you, the Universe will always provide for you. You are loved and always supported, always.

Breathe in love,
breathe out gratitude.

When you tune into your infinity of existence, there is nothing that seems impossible anymore. You are more powerful than you realize. Everything is perfect and everything is just as it is supposed to be. You are here, in this moment because your every single past experience has led you here. Everything you think you did wrong, if it were done right, would be the reason for you being someplace else. Even there, it would again be perfect.

“When you realize how perfect everything is you will tilt your head back and laugh at the sky”
― Gautama Buddha

You are constantly moving, constantly changing. You are not the same person today as you were yesterday. That would be impossible. Every single experience has had an impact on you and provoked a train of thought resulting in some amount of emotional response. You are forever growing, forever learning and forever evolving. Nothing is finite. Everything moves. Follow that flow and tune into infinity.

Find joy in everything
because it is in everything.

Have you ever heard of that old saying "Stop and smell the roses." ? Life is a series of moments. What we do in those moments is what defines us. Every single moment is providing something gorgeous for you to experience. A smell, a sound, a sight. Sometimes it is a word and sometimes a melody, sometimes it is a smile. You are always exposed to love, the only question is are you receptive to it? Are you allowing yourself to feel it?

You are always connected to everything. You are connected to me through these words you are reading. Thank you for that connection. You are connected with this planet and every being on it. You are breathing the air plants have produced for you and basking in the Sun's light. You are eating the food someone has taken care of and listening to melodies someone created. The very fabric of this reality is like a web in which everything is interconnected.

You can never be alone. Divine energies are always surrounding you and blessing you with their lovely presence. You are watched over and smiled upon by more than your human mind can even begin to grasp.

You are love
and you are loved.

You are not your brain and you are not your thoughts. You are not even your emotions. You are that which is beyond. You are the thinker of thoughts, a feeler of feelings, the one who is not only experiencing them but controlling them too. Everything has an impact on you and everything is influencing you in some way but you are the one who is rising above it all and being aware of all those connections. You are a unique drop without which an entire ocean would stop being what it is. Every connection is important and every connection is the reason for this Universe's existence.

You will never stop existing. You will always move from one experience to the next. Your being is internal and you are connected with everything. Remeber that there are only two ways of moving:

There are only two paths to follow,
one of fear and one of love.
Both are labyrinths.

I appreciate that you like what I wrote. Thank you for taking your time and leaving me a comment. Just a small correction, whenever I use "help" from other pages, it is clearly stated in my posts (you can check some of my other posts and see the list of references). This text is entirely my personal and original work, word for word. They may be some similar texts somewhere because I do believe that I am not the only one who thinks this way but there was no consulting them while this article was written.

Since you mentioned 5 websites, I am very curious to learn what they are. I would love to contact those authors and get in touch with like-minded people so would you be so kind and leave me the links?

Awesome post Petra. So true, we are all different but we are all connected energetically. Everything is energy out there, we just need to synchronize with the frequencies. We all need to get to the core eventually. What differences we see within individuals are just different levels of frequencies that our energies vibrate at. Thank you for sharing this wonderful write up 😍

Thank you for such nice words darling, you are very kind 💚

This is beautiful and really resonates with me. So much so that I have given it an @ecotrain bot upvote too :-) xx
