The Soulful Atom

We are all one.. In varying degrees of the ingredients we are all the same.. We all have everything that the other person has. Some parts are dormant while others dominating. Some times it takes a while to connect to some of these parts in others.. And some times its as if the other person is a reflection, a replica of you! Some people look similar, some think similarly and still others act similarly.
Even when we know this, it hits us with a jolt when we read something a perfect stranger has written about yet another stranger which exactly describes you! Its as if it was written for you. And then you look back at your life and wonder if that person had a same life, but the answer to that is no.. cause even if that person seems to be very close to how you are, that person has had a different story.. A completely different set of realities, experiences and dreams.. Who know perhaps like you that person was aching for something they didn't have? Even if they sounded happy, looked like a happy picture, perhaps they too had that sting somewhere inside? After all they were like you weren't they. And we all are same, aren't we?!
Out of the deep conditioning you have done on yourself for self-pity you think that those people got what they wanted. But then rationality makes you think, perhaps if those people were to look at you, they would think the same! Perhaps you have something they wanted too.. But it doesn't quite make you happy, does it? We crave for pain somewhere. We crave to crave for things. And in that we are all similar. Even people who call themselves saints, they crave for peace, they crave that something which no one else craves.

We resemble each other. In varying degrees we do. Our story has been written long time back. And in that there is a big difference. But we all at the root of it are same.. So all this judging business makes no sense whatsoever, so we tell ourselves and end up doing exactly that. In that too we are similar. But if we do want to do better we can possibly judge the degree of ingredients in everyone. To understand the levels and try to connect to those. Some are dormant and some dominant, but they are all there. We just need to find where! Maybe even they are not aware of it. And this is the recipe for perfect harmony. :)
