To feel at home in this world first you must know that you are not alone in it—that you belong to this world in belonging to one another. There is no home apart from that, no world without another.
You look about you and see that the world is filled with many things, like the objects that fill your home. There are plants and animals, rocks and stones, rivers, mountains, and oceans—all of which belong to one another. There is nothing that does not belong.
There is no inside or outside to this world that is your home. There is no going or returning. You experience the joy of reunion and the sorrow of parting because that is the only way that you can embrace its vast and infinitely subtle structure.
Time is the way you dance through eternity and learn to call infinity your home. So the most important thing is to relax and trust and know that you belong to One Love and One Body from which you can never be separated because such a thing is impossible. In the history of the world, it has never happened. Not once. Not one particle, not one atom of it has been lost.
