THE UNIVERSAL WEB (Not the internet!)

We live in an infinite Web of connections. Most of it constructed for us, some constructed by us. When you add to our web, your addition also connects to me, and vice versa. This is good. There are always new connections to be discovered.

A common example of the web of connections is the supposition of “The Butterfly Effect”. This concept was initiated by a 2004 science fiction film of the same name. The theme is that small initial events may have large unforeseen consequences.

The speculation is that the beat of a butterfly’s wing on this side of the world might generate a dramatic weather event on the other side of the world. Remembering this is science fiction, it nonetheless demonstrates a conscious awareness of the possible presence of a web of interactions connecting all events.

The movie and its concept is science fiction. The existence of the Web it infers is real.

The first connections we discover are personal relationships. Perhaps these are the most important — family, friends, acquaintances, community, etc. Relationship is at the heart of our humanity.

Science tells is that all the material world is connected, largely discovered through our senses, remembering our senses extend far beyond the five we most commonly experience, yet are greatly limited apart from the “extra-senses”. The material world we think we know includes the entire universe, and any other possible universes or dimensions. It is vast beyond our current capacity to grasp.
