Interconnective Beauty

 "... at some indiscernible moment he sees all of us clearly — every face distinct, like immiscible droplets of water, all of us individuals constituting an interconnected sea of beings..." David Miller.

Gazing into the heavens on a starry night a person sees the reflection of their own soul staring back at them. Perceiving our microscopic place in the revolving cosmos, we search to ascertain a meaning for our existence; we stretch our minds to comprehend a reason that justifies our fleeting journey in a universe composed of dark energy. 

Comprehension of a full-bodied meaning for living seems to lie just beyond my grasp. Perhaps I struggle dialing into a meaning for life because living entails adapting to a constant state of chaos. Can I harmonize the noisy commotion and distracting clutter in my life? I need to overcome personal inertia by learning to become comfortable with these changing times. In actuality, I have no choice but to capitulate to the evolution of facets in the world. Everything in the universe is undergoing constant change.

Alike all humankind, I am also in the process of evolving. Who I was will undoubtedly affect who I will become. Who I am now is not who I will always be. The demands imposed upon us by the exterior world prevent stagnation of our interior world. We must all respond to change by either growing or dying. The entire world is interconnected; we are part of the cosmic consciousness. Many factors beyond our direct control influence us.

Connectivity is more than just what our smartphones and tablets offer. It’s in our cars, in our houses, in our electronic household items — basically all around us. People, processes and data will be increasingly linked through connected devices. In due time, even those living in rural areas will no longer be too far away. Without leaving anyone behind, the world as a whole will go beyond just being connected; it’ll be interconnected.

The beauty is so interconnected across the many disparate aspects. Each, as individual entities, would be amazing in its own right, but together, they are breathtaking in both their simplicity and their complexity. There is incredible, indeed stunning beauty within a company, a city, an agency. The problem is, unlike the beauty of the ocean and the warm sand, one may have a bit more difficult time seeing it.

It is there, however. There is beauty in the unsynchronized rhythm of keyboards clacking, machines machining, children laughing, customers calling – or whatever occurs where you are. Yes, the beauty is all around you. It is waiting to be noticed and maybe even appreciated.
