We become one because we’re all changing places within a greater whole. We can’t pull a single straw out without the whole thing toppling. Everything is wedged in this great relational field that’s living, giving, receiving, breathing. The depth and breadth and force of the exchange between the parts is the measure of its health. Anything that increases the field of relationality, interactivity, and flow is going in the right direction. Anything that works in the direction of isolation, cooping things up into disconnected, separate particles is decreasing the abundance of divine mercy flowing through the system.
