interconnection

About 500 of the undead convene to learn the steps to Michael Jackson's Thriller video, July 2, 2009, at Discovery Green, Houston.

We've all be in situations where we're in a crowd and can feel the palpable energy in the room -- say, waiting for a delayed flight together, or praying in a church or meditating together, or hell, learning the dance moves to an iconic music video in the hot Texas sun together. If the majority of us are stressed, we all feel it. If most of us are happy, we're happy, we feel it. If we're at peace, we feel it. Energy gets passed on, from friend to friend, from person to stranger. It's this very cool, very cosmic, knock-on effect.

We're all interconnected.

Today, I'd love if you'd share an image that illustrates how interconnected we all are.

I am a part of a family but not by blood. But they are as much a part of my life and I love them as much as if we all shared DNA.

I love it. I went on a mission trip to Jamaica this summer & can't get enough of the unity. Here are just a few...

I am tearing up as I type, thinking of the energy that was present in Grant Park the night that Obama won the election.

We celebrate THE WIN!

The man of the hour arrives.

We all listen, with awe and reverence, and HOPE!

I went to Grant Park slightly afraid of the crowds, but it was the most peaceful gathering of several thousand people that has probably ever existed on this earth. Everyone was there for the same purpose: to share their hope, and in the end their joy, with the rest of humanity.

I've posted a picture of my morning vantage point for the follow-up to Liz's comment (Jan 20, 2009) in Washington, DC. Half a million+ people in DC and not one arrest. Peace truly is possible - and it was a reality on this one day in our nation's capitol.
