Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Measured in time of transport and communication, the whole round globe is now smaller than a small European country was a hundred years ago.
I just wish the world was twice as big and half of it was still unexplored.
The world gets very small after a while, if you stick around long enough.
The entire lower world was created in the likeness of the higher world. All that exists in the higher world appears like an image in this lower world; yet all this is but One.
