Humans are so ridiculously dense. We’ve been taught for millennia, by sages, mystics, and poets, that we are not separate. And yet, as evidenced by today’s standards of conduct not just here in America, but in Gaza and Ukraine, we just don’t get it. We live on such a small planet—why does fear play such an important part in the human play. The Human Play didn’t need to be a tragedy—it could have and should have, been a comedy all along.
Thank you for the nudge. I have been thinking and writing in "us" and "them" terms frequently. It is hard to understand and remember that we inter-are.
Such a beautiful & relevant poem , thank you 🙏

Why do we keep being so ridiculously dense when we could have been having fun ?
That’s a great question…one I ponder in different variations most days.
I would love to totally commit and believe that a new consciousness in underway for us all, but it still is a minority…What do you think ?
