In times of fear and uncertainty, we find ourselves discovering things we were previously unaware of about ourselves and others.  I have noticed people being kinder to each other.  I have always said and felt that pain is the great equalizer but we don’t often see each other’s pain or discomfort so we do not see ourselves in others. In situations of global experience, we unearth this bond we all have to the human experience of fear. We become aware of fears we did not know we were bonded to in our definition of ourselves.  The overwhelming uncertainty and constant change of information and circumstances that are sweeping through the world can be a palpable experience of pain that is the same for all of us on some level.  We, therefore, experience a simultaneous bond with each other because we recognize the commonality in our minds.  God invites us to notice that we are bonded in our hearts by the truth of love in all of us and have always been.  The fact that fear and uncertainty bring us to a place of bonding through pain is the portal through which to recognize our heart’s lens of the bond of love. We can’t stop at the bond of fear as that leaves us hopeless.  We have the opportunity to breathe through it into our heart space which reminds us that the bond of love to others and ourselves is what will allow us to ride the wave and meet each one another as the truth of who we are on the other side of this horrible experience.
