A Beautiful, Mysterious Connection

A mysterious connection between plain-tailed wrens in Ecuador is the secret to their beautiful, synchronized tune. In effect, the songbirds link their minds as they carry out their duets. “What these wrens have shown us is that, for any good collaboration, partners need to become ‘one’ through sensory linkages,” researches say. “When we are cooperating well, we become a single entity with our partners.”
“God calls us to a way of living, of relating to others and to the world. It is a way of cooperating rather than competing, of relationship rather than anonymity. It’s a way of love. See your soul as given back to you in the soul of everything.” - Richard Rohr
Affirmative prayer: My life is the very substance, energy, and love of the Divine. I am one with the Source of all that is, and I give thanks for the interconnectedness of all people, all sentient beings. I nurture my life in the stillness of prayer and meditation, and through my connection with others.  I affirm that Goodness is revealing Itself in my life song. Thank you, God. Thank you forever, Amen.
