Today I stumbled upon the website of the World Day of Interconnectedness 101010 (http://www.interconnectedness101010.org/).
It celebrates for the 2nd time in a row the day of interconnectedness and calls for joining the movement from I-llness to WE-llness. One thing really stands out to me that is the acronym “I-llness” as in contrast to “WE-llness”. Checking out the website shows many people and organizations support the idea of interconnectedness. But who in Earths sake came up with the idea of I-llness????????????????
“I” as in “I AM” should never be connected with the word illness. By doing so we proclaim ourselves, our individual being as an illness: something to overcome and be healed from. Is this really what we want???
I (yes, I!) am convinced and know we have the true and intrinsic birth right to be. Nothing more, and nothing less for “I” represents one side of the balance we make part of as an individual.
The other side of the balance is, you may have guessed already “WE”. Both, I and WE are equally important as they interact every second of our life. This interaction by the way, (the movement/swing of the balance in fact) creates new integrative energy which I see as one of the three basic fundamentals:
I + WE = IWE
Never, I repeat NEVER, can we grow, live or be as a human being without respecting these tree basic fundamentals. Our true destination in life is growing by creation (= IWE) and not amputating part of the equation by removing “I” which leaves us totally off-balance in self denial.
Rethink, better re-feel what interconnectedness truly means and you may conclude interconnectedness means also interconnectedness with I…
