Sometimes I feel like the entire mankind is just one entity or one mind.

[Hotteok]

Although there are all kinds of people out there and people think and act individually and fight one another, somehow I feel like everyone is just one entity or one body.

If this were some sci-fi novel theme, maybe I would've written a novel where people were originally just one thinking spiritual entity but broke into all these pieces because they disobeyed God. (For fear some might think I really believe this, no I don't, it's just one of my random thoughts I do when I imagine how I would've been had I not been a JW but instead a writer, lol)

 

Even though they are slightly different from one another, they're still human and follow certain typical human behavioral patterns (like how they make facial expressions according to anger, joy, sadness, etc) they all follow certain paths of life (marrying, raising children etc), all in all they ain't that much different from each other...making me feel like we humans are just separated pieces of Jehovah himself, who created us in His image. If we disobey and die, it's kind of like a natural consequence. Jehovah only takes off from his body what is not His.

Ever felt this way? I feel someday in the future people will really experience the true oneness of entire mankind.. I don't know how that would feel though.

I don't know where this sentiment comes from.

 

John 17

so that they may all be one, just as you, Father, are in union with me and I am in union with you, that they also may be in union with us, so that the world may believe that you sent me.  22 I have given them the glory that you have given me, in order that they may be one just as we are one.  23 I in union with them and you in union with me, in order that they may be perfected into one, so that the world may know that you sent me and that you loved them just as you loved me.

Since this is just a creative exercise, a mindless musing, and not a real topic for spiritual discussion, it's better suited for a different forum such as creative writing.  Here, let me move this for you so we can continue this creative exercise.

Well, Jehovah wants us to be very close with each other, even friends.

There is a reason why we call each other brother and sister.

Jehovah’s love and his establishment of worship brings us closer and closer to him, and each other.

Despite this, we are all distinct individuals with free will and personality. 
Our distinct personality opens a large door to personal preferences.

For example one person will love reading books, and imaginary scenarios presented by those stories.

And another prefers to wake up 5am to catch a “wave” (surfing)

Perhaps in Paradise those choices will be even wider and more abounded, due to variety that Paradise will present. 
Belonging to Jehovah’s family only enriches our own individual life. 
It’s a beautiful arrangement.

I think we pick up on each others energy. Why else can you walk in a room if people have been arguing and you can feel the tension without a word spoken ? 

  Also I have noticed over the years that sometimes during holidays or even on a Sunday i feel more calm. I began to realize it may be because the majority in my area are calm and so i pick up on it by some level we don't fully understand. 

 I think we are all connected. Energetically. 

  I cant ever fully be at peace or relax because I know there is a world of turmoil. I may be great , but others are suffering. 

 Those first moments after Armageddon, with Satans influence removed. Mankind has not felt that feeling...i can't begin to imagine what true calmness and happiness will feel like . 

  And if everyone around us is happy , ohh I bet we will "feel" it for sure. 

 So is all humankind connected? 

 I say. Yes.
