As children, we practice relating with those older, younger, and similar in age. With relatives, we have a common tie, but varying interests, abilities, and goals.
We get practice in fulfilling our own desires while learning to get along harmoniously with others in the nest. When we have a learning disability we depend on those adults around us to guide us in an alternate way so we can reach our goals.
As adults, our growth continues in learning to relate harmoniously. We form bonds of friendship that deepen into caringness. No matter what individual differences we have, we all have basic similarities, just as children of the same set of parents have similarities and differences.
We each have a body, discriminative mind, emotions, inner being, and were born of the union of two parents forming one whole new person. We begin to feel the underlying harmonious force of love weaving its way through our lives, enriching us with the realization that we are not in solitude on the planet, but interrelated in our worldwide extended family.
We came from the cooperation and connection of two, not from the self-centeredness of one. (Remembering that a sperm donor or egg donor parent is still one of two needed.)
To understand our inborn harmonious union with others we need to practice giving and receiving, relaxing and enjoying our interrelatedness.
By sharing and caring with others we experience a feeling of fullness and connectedness. By nurturing these feelings of connection and satisfaction daily, our capacity grows to include more people in our loving circle, eventually realizing and feeling our oneness with our entire planetary family.
Feeling connections
Expanding from our nesting family
To our planetary family
By daily acts of sharing and caring.
