A Hole is a Circle
(Or, "We Are Many, We Are One")
A Hole is a Circle.
A Circle is a Ring.
A Ring is a Sphere.
A Sphere is a Ball.
A Ball is a Globe.
A Globe is a Planet.
A Planet is a Home.
A Home is a Comfort.
A Comfort is a State.
A State is a Form.
A Form is Beingness.
Beingness is Stillness.
Stillness is Peace.
Peace is Silence.
Silence is The Void.
The Void is Potential.
Potential is Energy.
Energy is Vibration.
Vibration is Thought.
Thought is Consciousness.
Consciousness is God.
God is The Oneness.
The Oneness is What We Are.
We Are One God Who is Many.
We Are Many, We Are One.
We Are One and We Are Whole.
We Are Whole the Way We Are.
And We Are Simply What We Are.
And What We Are is a Void.
And a Void is Black.
And Black is a Hole.
And a Hole is a Circle.

"I am the darkness which brings the light!"

"As the father of two young daughters, I know that being a father is one of the most important jobs any man can have. My own father left my family when I was two years old. I was raised by a heroic mother and wonderful grandparents who provided the support, discipline and love that helped me get to where I am today, but I still felt the weight of that absence throughout my childhood. It's something that leaves a hole no government can fill." –Barack Obama from his Father's Day email regarding The President's Fatherhood and Mentoring Initiative (June 20th, 2010)

Why Grief Feels Like A Black Hole
(Or, "We Are The Light Of God")
Right in the center
of nothing—which is
all that exists—there is
a vibration that is
smaller than the
head of a sewing pin.
And that vibration—
which is created by
the natural pressure
of nothing—has
consciousness, which
is literally light.
And we are that light,
which is why all of the
matter in the universe
starts out smaller than
the head of a sewing pin.
And the light that we are
begins as negative energy
—like a black hole at
the center of a galaxy—
which is why grief
feels like a black hole.
