We can live without religion and meditation, but we cannot survive without human affection

“Our story is the story of the universe. Every piece of everyone, of everything you love and everything you hate, of the thing you hold most precious, was assembled by the forces of nature in the first few minutes of the life of the universe, transformed in the hearts of the stars or created in their fiery deaths.
And when you die, those pieces will be returned to the universe in the endless cycle of death and rebirth. What a wonderful thing it is to be part of that universe. And what a story, what a majestic story.”Professor Brian Cox, Wonders of the Universe.
“Thoughts are the shadows of our feelings—always darker, emptier, and simpler.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche
Gotye – Somebody I Used to Know
I’m so stuck on this song lately. It started when I heard it on the radio. I wanted to hear it because I didn’t know who sang it. Then suddenly BOOM it was everywhere…it was always on the radio…Lindsey sang it on The Voice…it’s going to be on Glee with Matt Bomer singing with Darren Criss (Their version is pretty awesome too!)
You are not IN the universe, you ARE the universe, an intrinsic part of it. Ultimately you are not a person, but a focal point where the universe is becoming conscious of itself. What an amazing miracle.
