Some people have deep connections. Others have not. Deep connections survive about everything. Other connections will (ultimately) fail. My diagram is about the ingredients of such connections, like the how, what, when, where, & who. The presence of ingredients will provide a (good or bad) mix. Most ingredients are from my 2022 blog The 7 elements that define...
De eerste Spaanse verklaring was een mogelijke cyberaanval. Vervolgens kwam er nog een mogelijke verklaring: atmosferische storingen.

He wrote that he would be surprised...
Mid April 2018, I wrote my blog Know thyself a.k.a. Who am I? Its first paragraph wonders how 37.2 trillion cells can view themselves as "one". A recent Aeon article - You are a network - sheds some light on this discrepancy and on my implicit question.
