LightHearted Musings - We Are All Connected

Piglet sidled up to Pooh from behind.

“Pooh!” he whispered.

“Yes, Piglet?”

“Nothing,” said Piglet, taking Pooh’s paw. “I just wanted to be sure of you.”

–A.A. Milne

Before birth our soul exists in an energetic realm where everything is connected. When we incarnate into physical form we often lose that sense of connection to our source as we replace it with a connection to our parents and our families.

Then, through the process of separation and individuation we begin to explore and express our unique gifts and talents, reinforcing our sense of ourselves as separate from each other. As important as this process is, we can also be left with a deep sense of isolation and longing, which we attempt to fill through our work, our relationships, our lovemaking, or our addictions.

It is very easy as we go through our busy lives, to forget who we really are. We forget that we are spiritual beings and that we are always connected to each other and to our source.

Sometimes we can reconnect to our source through meditation or prayer.

And sometimes, like Piglet, all we need is a simple reassurance: “I just wanted to be sure of you.”

Dr. Bruce
