The whole is fully wrapped up in each of us

We might think of we as a collection of individuals, yet there is a sense in which individuals are teased apart threads of the whole. There is a scientific view that the whole is as necessary to understanding the parts as the parts are to understanding the whole, that the whole is fully rolled up in each of us. So when I speak of family, consider that I might be holding a picture of a whole, an unbroken thread back to Eve and Adam if you will. Therefore we might together catch the edge of the moving shadow of how we can be—and we don’t have to convince anybody, just be alert to what—and who—is already here.
