I think deep down we all know that\u00a0we are somehow\u00a0connected<\/a> whether we acknowledge this or not. \u00a0The connection<\/a> isn’t immediately visible in this world, and yet many of us feel it and know that it is there. \u00a0Those who have accessed this deep knowledge in times of silence or brokenness or even great joy, experienced\u00a0this connection and wanted to share it with everyone and thus many creations and inventions have been born from what we know within, spoken and written languages, roads, art, books, mail, morse code, televisions, telephones, and now the internet – connecting our whole world.<\/p>\n

Yet – anything we create here is a simplistic, broken and eventually a corrupt copy of what truly exists, what is real yet invisible!<\/p>\n

Let us use our inventions to spread LOVE despite their brokenness, but let us NOT\u00a0allow them to overshadow the true and real connection that is buried deep within each of us – you will find it in the SILENT and INFINITE DEPTH of each PRESENT MOMENT<\/a>. \u00a0Within each moment it waits\u00a0to be discovered – a buried treasure whispering to us –\u00a0Come, come and see<\/a>!<\/p>\n

Matthew 13:44-46
\nThe kingdom of heaven is like a treasure hidden in the field, which a man found and hid again; and from joy over it he goes and sells all that he has and buys that field. Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a merchant seeking fine pearls, and upon finding one pearl of great value, he went and sold all that he had and bought it.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
