It's a Strange Familiar

I have decided not make any judgments or assumptions about any new place that I am living in for at least a couple of months. We shall see if I keep to it. Instead I will make some observations about myself. Regardless of the faux Wal-mart and Starbucks I have felt a strange familiar with this place since I arrived. I obviously have never been and many things are very unknown to me. Its a new culture, people and way of doing life. Many things have changed but I think one thing has to be in common.
I cannot help but believe that we as human beings have a common strand of humanity. That we were created to be together by something greater than us. There are so many different languages, cultures and traditions that at first glance seem so foreign but even without understanding, I feel a bond between me and all beings in this earth. Am I the only one that feels this? Without knowing a thing I get a deep inclination of more... there's more than just flesh and blood down here. I believe we are living a shared humanity. We belong to a greater story than we can imagine and were doing it together. I would hope that regardless of the many differences we can find each other that we respect the divine humanness in each of us.
