Do you think of the struggles you’re facing? How can you live to your fullest? Perhaps you think about your child’s life, and the lives of people who are beloved to you. Whatever occurs to you is subjectively correct. We are all wired to experience life differently!

However, when was the last time you thought about the life of the animals around you? The life of the trees that give such beautiful scenery? The life within the oceans and in the skies? Is this a planet that embodies human lives exclusively, or is this a planet full of extensive life forms?

It just so happens that in nature, everything is just somehow interlinked. We’re all part of this one big loop and often we don’t realize (until it’s too late) how a problem in a single area of the loop can affect all the lives in the loop!
