Fabric

I recently heard a song in a DJ set that hasn’t been released yet, and it spoke to so many thoughts I’ve carried, to the words I’ve shared, and to something I believe connects each of us. The fabric of life. This quiet, unspoken bond that links us together.

We often forget how much our energy matters. How simply walking into a room, sharing a moment of kindness, or truly listening can shift everything around us. We are woven into each other’s lives in ways we may never fully see. The ripple of a conversation, a shared glance, a small act of grace. It all matters.

We are not meant to move through this life untouched by one another. We are meant to be threads in the same tapestry, holding each other up in ways both big and small.

And maybe remembering that is how we start to mend what feels broken.

Song: Bigger Than All Of Us by Above & Beyond

You think it doesn’t matter
‘Cause a smile is just a smile
But it’s a ripple in the fabric
We are all connected by

You think it doesn’t matter
When your sadness makes you cry
But it’s a pull upon the fabric
That weaves your life to mine


That weaves, that weaves your life to mine
That weaves your life to mine


Because it’s bigger than you
It’s bigger than me
It’s bigger than all of us

It’s bigger than you
It’s bigger than me
It’s bigger than all of us

Because it’s bigger than you
It’s bigger than me
It’s bigger than all of us

It’s bigger than you
It’s bigger than me
It’s bigger than all of us


Because it’s bigger than you
(You know it’s ineffable)
It’s bigger than me
(The way we’re inseparable)
It’s bigger than all of us
(We’re moving in and out of love)

It’s bigger than you
(You know it’s ineffable)
It’s bigger than me
(The way we’re inseparable)
It’s bigger than all of us
(We’re moving in and out of love)

You can listen to the song here. Forward to 49:51 in the video.

  1. OMG! I love reading this today. Your mind is so poetic. You should really write like a short little poetry book or something. I would purchase it. Thank you for sharing this. The quote below was my favorite part of all that spoke to me.
    “We are not meant to move through this life untouched by one another. We are meant to be threads in the same tapestry, holding each other up in ways both big and small.”
