Truly Seamless


Truly seamless:

it's how things come together, elements that seem so vastly different - and yet now appear as one thing alone. The world is truly seamless. My example is a flower, seen as a whole and not as individual petal, stem, and its deep connection to the earth. A flower is a collection of infinite things, from bud to blossom and every cell of its makeup - it's always in motion, changing, even as we see its perfect bloom and label it a rose, or violet...

and we are not so different really, our bodies composed of key ingredients to make our every cell and these come to form such varied parts of form and function. We are never just one thing, our connection as seamless as the flower, deep in the earth too, and endless in our reach through sky. The illusion is that we stand alone, apart from one another, separate from earth and sky. 

in truth, we are kin to each flower, our blood related to the depth of ocean, our breath shared through the same air that whispers through every forest and touched upon each blade of grass. We are part of their belonging as they are equal in our own. 

it's how things come together, something greater than cohesion  - it's more truly seamless, whole, some intelligence simply known as life throughout its function and display. Perhaps the entire world's a flower, and we are a conspiracy of its bloom and network of its roots. And just as seamless, every flower, forest, and individual blade of grass is our belonging, an aspect of our furthest body, our greatest stretch of home. 

through every seaming part and aspect...we are more truly seamless.

one thing, alone.
