Yesterday afternoon I finished reading this wonderful little novel written by Roman Gitlarz...called Island of Echoes. The final sentence of this novel included the words "We are all echoes of the same song."
Those words have resonated with me ever since. Are we not all echoes of the same song...are we not all part of the divine intelligent Universe? Rev. Maureen Bass, who taught at our Unity Church on Fillmore in San Francisco, used to use the analogy of dipping a glass of water into the ocean. The glass of water is a glass of water...yet it is also the ocean. We are individuals yet we are part of the Universe...we are the Universe.
You see I do not believe in a God that is an angry white man sitting on a throne. Rather I believe in cause and effect...Karma (if you will)...that what we set in motion does come back to us. That we create our reality. That we are one with the Universe...one with all of mankind.
So, thank you Mr. Gitlarz for your book and for giving me something to think about...are not my thoughts...my being...echoes of the song of the Universe.
E'nuff!
