connections

"All things are interrelated and interdependent; nothing exists in isolation. The entire universe is one ecosystem, similar to a spider web - if one part is touched, the entire net shimmers.

As a result of interrelatedness and interdependency, every expression of energy, including our thoughts and intentions, ultimately touches and affects everything else."

Roberta,
When I saw your "net" I was reminded of Joseph Campbell's mention of the "net of Indra" from both Hindu and Buddhist faiths. Just punching up net of indra on Google will get you a whole lot of cool stuff!

Loved the proselytizing mice!
