The Netting of Life
All life is inter-connected in a way we can not yet fully comprehend. There is a an invisible web of compassion around this world.
The space in-between each sqaure in the net is where most people elect to reside.
The actual strength of the web is where the connecting squares of netting are twisted together. That is where compassion is the strongest... and these crosspoints are what hold everything together.
The weight of being pulled and twisted this way and that in order to hold everything else together is immense and sometimes painful.
Living one's life with compassion isn't easy. It is refusing to look the other way. It is looking beyond what is material and allowing oneself to FEEL. You need to be strong enough to accept the pain to truly appreciate the beauty. Only then you will find find real meaning.
