One Single Thing
Twenty-five hundred
years ago
Lao Tzu wrote of Tao
He said that all the
world
was one single system
one single thing
Here in the
twenty-first century
our science teaches us
the Earth
is a single biosystem
of thousand of
interrelated parts
One single system
one single thing
My friends
look at the Earths
biosystem----
The lives of species
everywhere
affect the well being
of other species
Thousands of
interrelated parts
one single system
one single thing
Like a coral with
thousands
of individual creatures
all living in a colony
to make a single
creature
Earths living
biosystems
are thousands
of individual creatures
all living in a
self-sustaining
forever evolving colony
to create
one single system
one single thing
If the Earth isn't
itself alive
it certainly has a lot
of parts that are....
One single system
one single thing
The Earth is alive
and we each are a part
of that life
The Earth is our mother
One single system
one single thing
Personally, I think
all of Earths religions
all of our science
all of our conceptions
of Gods
have been efforts to
perceive
and understand the
life,
the biosystem
that we all are a part
of
All equal in their
different conceptions
of
one single system
one single thing
I would imagine
Like any living thing
She cares very deeply
for all of her parts
