Oneness....again

The question often arises; how can we all be one?
The recent discoveries (the last quarter century) in quantum phsyics lays down the groundwork for our understanding of the essential union, or oneness of all things (including, of course, people!).
But we won't go there today. Suffice it to say that another little metaphor sometimes says it so much better than some dry academic explanation can ever do. Besides, I am far from an academic type.

The thought was this: There are many islands we can see in the ocean (remember the ocean thing from previous posts). They do look all seperate from one another but under the surface they are all connected.
We too, though unique in our outward bodies, are all connected under the surface so to speak, at the molecular level,and the energy that sustains them is the same in all. We usually call this energy God, or Spirit.
I realize this is overyly simplistic but if you want more depth I could refer you to the writings of Ken Wilber and many others if you like. Also, I write most of this in between clients and am lucky to complete any kind of coherent thought. ( "

Maybe I can say this more clearly next time when I can think without the constant interruptions, usually from the phone. The appointments I appreciate, the telemarketers I do not. Will try again tomorrow.
