One World, One Love


The Internet
is Interconnected
See its nodes of connection
Heart to heart to heart

Amidst fluxes of connection
Emerges a whole,
A collective being.
Breathing, speaking, beating hearts
Loving, Learning, Sharing.

One Heart
One Voice
One Mind

One World
One Love

    One Love… it is! This is an especially beautiful post. I am an American living in Norway, and after the tragic events that took place here in Oslo this past weekend, I’ve been blessed by my friends in the blogging and other online communities with support. I discovered your blog two weeks ago and look forward to you update. Just wanted to reach out and say hello, and thank you for the love here today! :o )

      Hi Tracy, thanks for saying hi! I’m so sorry to hear you were nearby the Oslo events. These tragedies happen everywhere around the world, and really show us how vulnerable our lives are. I’m so glad you have found support throughout the world via the Internet. I think it’s fascinating to think about these connections over vast distances. Good luck with everything, hope you find a bit of peace amidst the chaos.

    THIS is truly amazing, my sweet friend. YOU are amazing. It really made me feeling something deep and profound in my core.

    I just so enjoy you, your exploratory nature, true heart, and questing mind. You are an inspiration to me. I think of you often and wonder how your farming adventure is going. You have great courage.

    Thank you for sharing this.
    Am sending warm hugs and love, Lynn.

      Thanks, Robin!! I am supposed to head out to the farm today, but woke up with difficulty moving my arm and a lot of shoulder pain. So I’ll be going to the doctor, and may be delaying my trip another day. Perhaps the Universe is telling me not to rush, that rushing through anything is unhealthy. Whatever the case, I can’t ignore the pains in my arm, so I’ll be taking care of that first. Thank you so much for your warm support. I wish you lots of love and joy!

      Hi Teresa, it is amazing and a little bit scary too! If you go to the OPTE Project website, they have maps generated from different years, so you can see that the Internet expands and contracts over time – it’s organic, growing and evolving as more and more people come online. I am incredibly fascinated by the fact that it looks like our Universe! I love it :)

  4. One Love is my motto! I absolutely love this!

    Beautiful post, Lynn.

    Hope your shoulder pain eases. I suffer from shoulder impingement syndrome and have to watch how I move. If I feel the tell-tale twinge, I stop.

    • Lynn Fang says:

      Thanks, Nancy! I am feeling much better today, after sleeping on the floor instead of the bed and taking some Alleve. I’ll be heading out to the farm in a few hours today! Sorry to hear about your shoulder. That’s good you are careful with it. Be well.

  6. Lynn- this is beautiful. One world, one love. Nuff said.

    Hope your shoulder is better.
