Have you ever had a brilliant idea and then, before you know it, someone else has come up with the same idea and there it is in front of you and you kick yourself saying, "that was my idea" or "they stole my idea" - or something like that and you feel a bit like the Universe did ya wrong, somehow - or maybe you just kick yourself a bit saying " I should have made it myself, then I could be making all that money" - or SOMETHING like that - you know what I mean. - well - did ya ever stop to think that maybe just maybe that idea DID come from "you" - or that you "picked it from the ether" - through our web of collective consciousness - hmmm I had a point here but I'm losing it. I think you get it though. We DO have a connection to that unified unit of consciousness, we have mostly forgotten it, or when we are met with it, we do not recognize it. Oh I'm explaining this poorly.
