A Flight of Fancy

What if we really are all connected in some way – different expressions or parts of one?

Would that mean that when one of us has a lovely life …
Full of beauty, peace, joy, and success
The rest of us are benefitting too?
What if?

Would that mean that when one of us has a terrible time…
Full of violence, hunger or fear
The rest of us are suffering as well?
What if?

Would that mean that when one of us is gentle and loving …
Generous, kind, and quick to forgive
The rest of us are knowing kindness too?
What if?

Would that mean that when one of us is selfish and hateful …
Self-seeking, dishonest and cruel
The rest of us are losing something too?
What if?

What if we knew that it meant that what we do to others
We do to ourselves, at some level.
The experience we cause, we share too?
What if?

What would our world feel like to live in
If we thought like that when we acted?
Would ‘do as you would be done by’
Make sense?
