Insane

Sometimes I think the border between awake and asleep is closer to dream than it is to reality.

As I was drowsing before sleep last night, I had a strange thought. I pictured each human body as a cell in a larger organism that was the planet. I couldn't see what divided us from it. All I could see were the connections. Air, water and food pass into and out of us, binding us to the planet. Information and emotion pass from human to human, binding us to each other.

Then I fell asleep.
