Thank you for posting such a poignant piece. I heard once that if I were like you and you were like me, one of us would not be necessary! While that may be an over board explanation that salutes our inherent uniqueness it still has merit. We are not all alike, but we all have a purpose, plan, and function that may not be recognized by others. We have our place in the puzzle, the puzzle of community requires the contribution of our unique piece to be complete itself. Reply

M. Diane I quite often feel the opposite, disappointment that I did not see the fit before, and why didn't i trust my intuition? If anyone tried to subject my puzzle experiences in a time bound situation, i would have had to see, over and over again, how i failed to complete the picture according to third dimensional time.

Sometimes we cognitively 'get it' all at once, and sometimes it's in shards ...

Community is created when two or more separate beings magnetize for the sake of the greater good: all communities seal the upper worlds to the lower realities of our 'abstract reasoning' skills. I think we see ourselves as boring. But I think He sees us as infinite. Reply

Puzzle experiences... Have you ever, when assembling a jigsaw puzzle, avoided trying to insert a certain jigsaw piece into an empty spot because you assumed the piece was not the right shade, size or shape? And only when the puzzle game was almost over because only a few pieces were left and the same space remained empty, you decided to go ahead and try that piece you looked at several times and ignored, rejected or had completely overlooked? Do you recall how, when you found the piece fit perfectly you laughed at yourself and your imperfect perception and realized you wasted time by not at least considering it sooner? Do you remember the feeling of complete satisfaction when fitting the piece into the place it was designed to fit and finishing the puzzle? I do. Reply
