The saying "we are all connected as one" is a seeming platitude we have all heard, yet this piece shares fascinating evidence to confirm the truth that we are indeed connected on an atomic level. "Long story short, it turns out that no matter where you go in the world -- Antarctica, North Pole, Africa, you name it -- every meter sphere of air around you contains 50 carbon atoms from each one of your exhales over the last year. That's worth a pause. 50 carbon atoms from each one of your exhales over the last year will greet you no matter where you go on Planet Earth." Fabrizio Alberico shares more in this beautiful reflection that includes a recording and the lyrics to a beautiful song titled, "Pass It Along" that poignantly reminds us of the transience of our lives, out deep interconnection, and the power of generosity.
