Our Creator so magnificently set up a system that allows us at every turn to know that we are not alone.  Perhaps God knew that we would have the tendency to align ourselves with our ego mind that is looking to separate us.  Thus is the dance of life.  The step in and out of connection with ourselves, with each other and with God.  It seems as though if there were an assignment given to us in our time on earth it is how to remain to connected to all that is when we live with an ego-mind that is always seeking to define itself as separate.  Most of us have had an experience of being connected with another and feeling the flow of love and energy back and forth.  It gives and brings life just in its existence.  Conversely, most of us have also had the experience of the breakdown of that and the subsequent heart-ache of not feeling connected and together.  Because we are designed to be in union with All That Is, the lack of togetherness can be devastating. Our ego comes to the rescue with justifications about how we are better than or less than the other with whom we no longer feel connected.  It swoops in to save us with the best it has to offer us-separateness.  Our Spirit at the same time, very quietly invites us to a deeper experience of togetherness with Our Creator.  When human connections seem to fail, it is an invitation to seek out the Infinite Togetherness that is guaranteed us if we look to connect with it.  There is a breakdown that causes a breakthrough. It is hard when I have come face to face with the frailty of connecting with my fellow human beings.  Were it not for the constant pursuit of my heart by God, I probably would have completely shut off the world a long time ago.  Today, however, when I come across that experience I know that I can quickly return to my heart and align my Spirit with All That Is through my breath, gratitude, a simple, “God, are you there?“, or recognition of beauty.  Then the separation I feel begins to dissipate because I recognize that it is simply a product of myego-mind’s imagination and agenda of separateness and is not based in The Infinite Reality.  My prayer for us today is that we be open to answering the invitation of togetherness from our Creator at the very moment we might want to chuck it all and just stay on our own.  Make it a great one!  Peace~Colleen
