We survived slavery because we held onto one another.  The moment we found independence we  began to commit suicide.

 - Dr. Tesehloane Keto

 

There is a metaphysical principle that says whatever we do to someone else, we actually do to ourselves.  This principle supports the golden rule "do unto others."   We forget this and when we do, we create an imbalance in our own being.  When we malign another person, we are talking about the self.  When we deal dishonestly with someone, we are cheating the self.  When we abuse, neglect or abandon another, we are doing it to the self.  Why?  Because we are connected by the one Creative sourceThis source creates a responsibility for, accountability to and dependence on one another.  The moment we allow the self to believe it can do without other people we create the kind of loneliness, depression and disconnection that makes life not worth living.

- Iyanla Vanzant

I am one with the Source.  I Am one with mankind.
