Disconnected

Living life without being connected to something is...no way to live.

We each have something to give to others. And, by the way, what we have to give is not primarily information.  It is, rather, what we know — know in the sense of our presence in the world.

Ever feel like you worked hard at preparing something or doing something, all to no real effect? The question may be not so much did I give anything, as it is, did I give of myself (as opposed to just disembodied information)?

What we have to give comes from what we are connected to; usually, who we are connected to.  Disconnection inhibits real living.
