1
00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:05.000
When I experience disconnection
it's me against everybody else.
2
00:00:05.000 --> 00:00:09.519
You know life is small
and life is mean.
3
00:00:09.519 --> 00:00:12.119
I become small,
I become mean.
4
00:00:12.119 --> 00:00:15.400
When I experience life
as connection,
5
00:00:15.400 --> 00:00:20.359
I'm forced to face the problems
that we all share,
6
00:00:20.359 --> 00:00:26.920
because the fact is if I'm mad
at somebody else for being prejudiced,
7
00:00:26.920 --> 00:00:29.960
I then have to say "oh hold it,
that stuff is in me too".
8
00:00:29.960 --> 00:00:32.439
It makes you realize we're all
made of the same stuff,
9
00:00:32.439 --> 00:00:34.359
we're all struggling.
10
00:00:34.359 --> 00:00:37.640
I just had the news
of this morning and read it
11
00:00:37.640 --> 00:00:39.920
about the latest set of crimes
12
00:00:39.920 --> 00:00:42.799
and instead of me
walling myself off:
13
00:00:42.799 --> 00:00:44.520
"I'm not like those bad people"...
14
00:00:44.520 --> 00:00:46.640
There're parts of me
that could get imbalanced.
15
00:00:46.640 --> 00:00:49.439
I could take
five bad decisions
16
00:00:49.439 --> 00:00:54.039
and find myself in that same place.
It's so humbling.
