Relationships, good or bad, momentary or long lasting, with humanity or divinity teach us lessons for the future. A momentary interaction with anyone or anything on earth or beyond can leave an impression on our minds and hearts immediately, or when remembered later. I believe the power of relationships stems from the fact that in their complete absence we cannot recognize our own identity. We relate because we have the ability to love, and that ability comes to us because we ourselves are products of love. 'There's a Lonely Ant Crossing the Veranda' is about the transformative power of relationships to teach us valuable lessons for life. If only we paused to learn we would become true channels of peace and harmonious co-existence.
