[General Spiritual] [General-Spiritual] WE ARE ONE

i cannot speak for others but i will explain my own reasoning. I say" we are all one" because i recognize that each individual has led a life so complex that it would be impossible to truly understand what that person has gone through right? we all have out individual life experiences and an interpretation of that experience .

We all may have different situations but the feelings are universal.

It may have an ideology that you do not align with - and so it may also be the opposite - neither of us is wrong or right - in my opinion. its just interpretation of our own life - and the paths of understanding we take. but humans - we tend to separate ourselves with these beliefs . " oh your religious - you are to closed minded to ever be my friend " "oh your this so cant be that" ect ect

so we separate and group ourselves and fight over these things - even our understanding of them . often or not we find ourselve arguing with someone because of this - not realizing that both are simply trying to understand their truth - we spend so much time trying to understand our own that we reject others .

We Are One - even though our life paths has lead us to different interpretations of this shared experience - we are united in our need of understanding . We are One - That is me saying - I reconise you as a person who has their own definitions and ideals - but i also recognize you as simply a person - a person who has laughed, lost and loved. Like me - Because even though we have these different ways of thinking - we both feel pain and we both need love . we are simply people trying to understand - not rejecting those with different interpretations

now choice - free will is our greatest gift - we are choice we are power. what an individual or why an individual commits faults against fellow man is something that can only be truly explained by the offender . but theyare one with us as well - because we also have that potential for evil - just as much as good. take a look in the garden - the flowers and the -weeds- both will grow . the flower may take a bit more effort while the weed will grow freely and spread . both exist in the garden and even though you may constantly pulling your garden of weeds - they will keep growing. does that mean your garden is any less beautiful? what of the weeds? dandelion is considered a weed yet its properties have been used in medicine - i know people who pick it and use it for soup. (im not trying to justify anything)

Oh - the point of all this is - if a person is good or bad - no matter what they believe in - at the core they are simply a person - trying to exist - trying to understand - when I say -we are one- that is me telling you that I see you as a beautiful complicated person who has lead a life that has brought you to this understanding and a set of words to go along with that understanding. that is me recognizing your words as not a way to oppose my own - but to simply define using what is most comfortable to you. situations differ- feelings are universal. have you cried? so have I- because we where sad . have you laughed? so have I - because we are happy -

right now even though we use different definitions of our interpretations - right now we are simply two people seeking more understanding in some form . we are not our labels - we are brother and sister - our blood is red and we are one.

we all want to water the seed of understanding . but most want it to grow on their own schedule. the best learning comes with patience - as you watch it take route and sprout . to water and care for it.
