“A Thought”<\/em><\/strong><\/h4>\n
\n

There is no Black or White
\nThere is ignorance and enlightenment
\nAnd perhaps even these notions are but an
\nIllusion of our limited understanding
\nOf the vast multi-verse around us<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

And where do we stand in all of this
\nWe engulf it
\nIt embraces us all and we melt into its trembling arms<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

We are one
\nIt is one<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

There is no Black or White
\nThere is only oneness
\nInterconnected
\nIntertwined
\nInterwoven
\nIn to a continuous band of light<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

We look and are blinded from seeing
\nWe hear but do not listen
\nAnd all of the wonders pass us by
\nOnly to be caught as dust swept away<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
