A very interesting feature of meaning is that you can't give it, tell it to other people or force it on them. They can only experience it by being connected, by the actual act of being part of everything, by removing the veils around themselves and participating...

This tendency not only colors what we think is coming at us with our own projections, but, more importantly, reinforces the impression that we live in a world that threatens us with a maddening swirl of uncertainty that we have to reach out and control.
