Synchronicity requires a cause and effect relationship in the same space..not as a phsysical cause and effect one after another...to find to Synchornicity..one needs to remove common belief of causality with effect and replace it as all things are connected through there cause and meaning...ie. "it is what it is". I need a little clarification on the phrase "people who get it"....what truely is "IT" if we are to use the terms Synchronicity and Reciprocity....i love your post but only challenge this one area...sincerely Glen I like what you have to say…but question reciprocity…only General reciprocity meets your statement…in which nothing is expected in return only the joy of “giving” if we use reciprocity as a moral or industrial statement then how we look at the world changes and therefore the love gathered changes meaning.

Sat, 26 Jul 2008 19:05:57 +0000 http://carrieanddanielle.com/?p=510#comment-2760 This question threw me for a few days. I was afraid that I had forgotten how to fall in love with the world. After some thought, I realize that I fall in love with the world through my senses too, particularly through smell. I love the smell of my husband's skin at the nape of his neck. I love the smell of my dogs' skin. The smell of the earth right before it rains in the spring. The smell of the Fall. I just haven't been making enough time for myself to renew and maintain my love affair with the world as of late. This question threw me for a few days.

When we lose people we love, in death or other distance, it is the smell of their coat, the sound of their laughter or the shape of their walk that strikes us with emotion. I fall in love with the world by sensing the beauty of it's infinite nuances like that of colour or music. The soul crushing resonance in harmony, the yummy exhilaration in a shade of red. These same nuances in nature, in people, relationships and ideas-they all reflect back into one another, and in my own self. From the glory of a single seed to the glory of a symphony, it is not in the majesty of the moment, but the majesty of the senses. It is all in the senses, without a doubt.

We just returned from Vernon. My parents live at Predator Ridge. Our next home will be in Lavington...we bought land there a few years back. Please tell me you love life in Vernon. We were in Westbank for 8 years before Whistler, I do miss the Okanagan but not the growth in Kelowna. I hope for a quiet place in Lavington, love the little school and restaurant. I want to float in Kal lake and play at Davidson's Orchards! I want to buy cherries for under $5 a pound! All the best! Glad you commented. We just returned from Vernon.

How do I fall in love with the world? How do I fall in love with the wooooorld? (I must repeat the question and let the answer dribble out my fingertips without censorship). Howwww? Oh, yes, now it's clear. It happens when I feel free. When I can move how I want, when I can go where and go with whomever i want. When I can ride my bike, dance in community, share my tears, and eat my oatmeal day after day. I t happens when I am secure, and I feel the safety of being able to tend to myself. That's when those moments, those beautifully bright moments, whisper "you, Jennifer, are capable of falling in love". How do I fall in love with the world?
