I've been thinking

I've been thinking about that old Zen conundrum: what's the sound of one hand clapping? My personal opinion--nothing. You don't have two hands, you don't have any clapping. It's as simple as that. Stars, galaxies, clapping hands, what's the point? The point is that we all need somebody, whether you're a supercluster or a little proton, a yin or a yang. Everybody is hooked into everybody else.

    I love this and the notion behind it -- the "universal" or "golden thread" by which we're all woven together in the fabric of life.

    Your blog is full of such feel good stuff! I'm fond of collecting quotes too -- those which really resonate. Great choices. :)
