Ok here is a little ten minute exercise that is a little dissolving. You can do it right now while you are reading this post or next time you are alone listening to the buzz of silence contemplating solitude.
You feel cut off from the rest of the world and at that instant you feel you are the only one that exists lonely and bored. Nothing could be further from the truth. You will find out how mistaking you really are.
Right now in this moment, ask yourself what your friends, family, roomates, college buddies, highschool friends, anyone; is doing right now. Picture them in your mind. what there current activity is. Try and place them in relation to where you are now in space, beside you, to the left, right. Imagine how far they are from you. see them from different angles. Now think about the scene of people who might be around them.
broaden your point of view an imagine everyone else in their neigborhood, town, city. What are they doing; working, shoping, sipping a latte at starbucks, studing, sleeping. How many people in this world at this precise moment are clipping ther toenails? surfing the net, sipping a hot cup o soup?
How many at this instant are listening to music, watching t.v., trying to get comfortable in an airplane seat. How many are laughing, crying, dreaming?
How many at this instant are asking the same questions?
