<div>Peggy, thank you for the beautiful phrase and story...
"the radiant network"... :-) <br>
<br>
and Chris, thank you. That is the first time I have heard
of "I belong to everything" as a more accurate version of
"all my relations"... it resonates. <br>
<br>
</div>
Annamarie, in Spanish (which is my mother tongue), we say
"bien acompañada" as the opposite feeling of lonely. <br>
</div>
<br>
It means, "well-accompanied" or "well-companioned", neither of
which I hear used in English as frequently <br>
as "bien acompañada" is, in Spanish...<br>
<br>
</div>
with all best wishes,<br>
<br>
Rosa<br>

<div style="word-wrap:break-word">A modern name for that
feeling…the radiant network.
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Following the Practice of Peace gathering at
Whidbey Island in 2003, Anne Stadler coined the term
the “radiant network” to describe the sense of
connectedness that was present by the end of our time
among the 130+ people from 26 countries, many hight
conflict areas. Chris was there. So was Harrison, and
others on this list.
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I had it come home to me later that year when in
Pune, India before the Open Space on Open Space in
Goa. We were walking through Osho Park, a sacred
place that inspired us to silence. At one point, I
joined two of my colleagues who were just standing
still looking into the distance. All of the sudden,
the clouds cleared and in this place that had looked
empty was the largest “colony” of spider webs I’ve
ever seen spread between two trees that must have
been 15-20 feet apart.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>One of my friends said, "it’s the radiant
network. When the sun is out, you can see it. When
the sun is behind the clouds, it’s still there, but
it’s invisible."</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Somehow that planted the feeling in my bones. I
know that I am held in the radiant network. When my
heart is open, I feel it deeply. When my heart is
closed, it’s harder to believe, but deep within,
some part of me knows I am connected. And that gives
me courage.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Yes…the opposite of lonely.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Thanks, Annamarie, for the question.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>And many thanks, Chris, for the language from
different wisdom traditions. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>appreciatively,</div>
