Have you ever wondered whether we’re all connected to one another in nature?
I was having a chat with my friend (she is an environmental fanatic) today, she was trying to convince me to at least start saving the earth by using a reusable shopping bag. She explained that a person who pollutes the environment not only affects himself but it affects the whole world. She even gave me an analogy of that, it goes like this.
2 strangers are on a boat in the middle of the sea. One of the them starts to drill a whole underneath him. The other stranger, seeing what the 1st stranger is doing yelled at him, “Hey you, stop drilling a hole in the boat!”. The 1st stranger yelled back, “What business is it of yours? I’m drilling a hole underneath me, not you!”. The 2nd stranger replied angrily,“You idiot! We’re on the same boat!”
After that conversation with my friend, I’ve started to realise that we are connected somehow to each other and nature. Afterall we are on earth which is shared by all. Could it be there is interconnection between us? How do we realise and feel this connection? Are we one collective soul?
