As I was falling asleep a few nights ago, I caught myself pondering on a question. What happens to our atoms, molecules, and photons of light (that each of us are made of) after we die? Do we dissipate or dissolve?
In particular I was musing on what happens to our earthly shell (if one is blown up or depart this earth in some other way where there’s not much left of the body). I thought about cremation. And I considered how our earthly bodies must slowly disintegrate when we’re buried in the earth.
I grabbed my phone, turned the Otter app on, and let it transcribe these seemingly profound thoughts for me. I’d never had thoughts quite like these before, though I did think about mortality a lot after my mom passed in 2017 and my dad passed in 2019. We even wrote a song several years ago on this topic called, The Connection.

We’ve performed The Connection Live too (back when we lived off the grid and my son had shaved my head: https://vimeo.com/416782385 is the song, and this was my little intro to the song: https://vimeo.com/416781395
Perhaps, back in 2004 when I heard those words in the middle of the night, We Are All Connected, it was my body talking to me (and that every cell in my body was connected with Richard)!
That the voice I’d heard was somehow uttered back to me? Because Richard and I had been on vacation, and we had experienced such a beautiful night together. I don’t know. But I remember that I felt complete. Whole. And that night was definitely one of the best nights of our life together, yet it was only the beginning!
Continuing on the whole topic of Connection (and possibly the afterlife), Richard also wrote a song recently called, Upload me. I love it! You can hear it at: https://youtu.be/4_hnGJArchM?si=vp5jeQhjNn-hkxwv
And here’s one of my dance/music videos using this song, Upload me: https://youtu.be/ipNeeBtcY_8?si=VWb82jyIO5VE1V2m
Reason for these meandering thoughts
I’m currently editing my 5th book, We Are All Connected. I was hoping to have the manuscript done by now (mid-February 2026), but I think I need a few more weeks. I keep waking up late at night with an idea of how to explain something better, or run chapters back through AI to ensure I haven’t forgotten something. I am using AI to help me reduce the size of the book. You all know how wordy I am. Ha!
I’ve sure written a lot about our ‘connections’:
Integrating the Spirals
I’m encouraging those “over 60” to open to lifelong learning (observe and gently question their pre-conceived beliefs, aka ‘Programming’), become more aware of their thoughts and emotions, consistently move their bodies (too many are stuck in their heads and physically unhealthy), become strong, and resilient in spirit, soul, mind, body. And to question EVERYTHING!
