Everything is fastened to everything else
Nothing or no one has a solitary existence
Each one is a link in the braided cord,
Connecting and strengthening the chain.
So journey beyond the narrow boundaries of self
To become the vital part of a bigger story!
You are referring to globalization, I think. The whole world is interconnected. We have a choice either to strengthen this bond by trade, exchange of arts and science, .. or else try to destroy like the terrorists such as ISIS who spread anarchy. Your poem is extremely relevant.
Beautiful poem, Valsa. The image of all being part of a chain is wonderful.
Yes! ! Everything is fastened to everything else! Thanks for sharing this poem with us.
Magnificent thoughts, Valsa. In addition to the great verse, there is so much to think about. I wonder if it is possible for one to become a complete chain? This goes to myfavourites.
Very true, Valsa. At times one feels very isolated but if we think about it we're more connected than we could ever realize. And we have an impact on other people's lives that we'll likely never know the full effects of. Thanks for posting this lovely poem.

This is so very true! Only lately, around the age of 40, I have started to realise that certain things which appeared to happen mysteriously; actually, they were all connected. A profound poem!
Yes, many things which happen in our life are connected! Thank you!
