There is a biologist named Lewis Thomas, whose work I appreciate very much.
He describes how our human bodies are “shared, rented, and occupied”
by countless other tiny organisms, without whom
we couldn’t “move a muscle, drum a finger, or think a thought.”
Our body is a community, and the trillions of non – human cells in our body
are even more numerous than the human cells.
Without them,
we could not be here in this moment.
Without them,
we wouldn’t be able to think, to feel, or to speak.
There are, he says,
There are no solitary beings.
The whole planet is one giant, living, breathing cell,
with all its working parts linked in symbiosis.

to fulfill life’s most intriguing questions…
