Quotes:
• I do believe we’re all connected. I do believe in positive energy. I do believe in the power of prayer. I do believe in putting good out into the world. And I believe in taking care of each other. — Harvey Forbes Fierstein (1954-) American screenwriter
• The human brain has 100 billion neurons, each neuron connected to 10 thousand other neurons. Sitting on your shoulders is the most complicated object in the known universe. — Michio Kaku (1947-) American theoretical physicist
Note: Of course “the known universe” keeps on expanding. And the mind is a much larger matrix than the brain.
Comment: Our connections are of three natures: personal, mental, and spiritual. We are connected with our fellows through family, friendship, and many other associations. The mind, on the other hand, looks to connect ideas, stories, and experiences. And the soul loves to connect ideals. We can make these bridges with logic, mathematics, or even intuitive faith leaps.
