So far, a question am pursuing is 'what's a relationship?' Like, does 'we' imply a relationship? I want to explore with you. 'We' definitely implies a relationship. Thank you. How would you define a relationship? Connection. Am finding it so hard to define a relationship. Like now, if I use the definition you've offered I find myself in the same situation. For example what kind of connection? Am connected to all Kenyans, but do I have a relationship with them? Yes, If you live in Kenya then you are connected to other Kenyans geographically, if you are Kenyan then you are connected to other Kenyans through nationality. You are in a relationship with everything and everyone I think that in the middle of the connection between connection and relationship there is a valve. Flow from one is not cut off from the other yet the reverse is hindered. Connection= Relationship but Relationship≠connection How is that possible in relationship? If Obiero did it, Who Am I?

Its still impossible;In your own words you defined relationship as a connection but you are again stating that a connection doesn't necessarily imply a relationship! What is the difference/similarities between a relationship and a connection? If Obiero did it, Who Am I?

I'd define a relationship as the path followed by any two or more Mindsets interacting, causing effects, and in turn being influenced by past effects.
For me, a connection is necessary for a relationship, but not all connections are relationships.
That is, the difference between a connection and a relationship is that a connection is a potential relationship. Being a Kenyan am connected to all Kenyans though I relate with only a few.

A relationship is also a means of confirming, disproving, and creating experience.

The mind, therefore has no power whatsoever, neither do people have power outside relationships. Relationships are the only axes of power.
People have no minds, the universe has only one mind, what people have are 'mind prints'.

People have no minds, the universe has only one mind, what people have are 'mind prints'. The more I seek to know and understand the mind, the more am amazed. So far, I am almost certain that there's nothing like 'mental illness'. And 'God' is most probably a metaphor for the mind.

Oh! I think the mind is powerful by itself.
