a united state of mind

"If you think of the word 'state', as in way of being, how cool would it be if we chose to live in the united states? - A land that breathes in and out at precisely the same moments, sharing emotions, moon cycles, and self-appreciation. Were we all walking around the same state of mind, we'd be a country whose cause is compassion thanks to our condition. Our senses would force us into alignment with everyone else. Maybe this is how huge schools of fish or flocks of birds make tight turns without running into each other. Their states are united." - JM
