Being More Than a Sum
of Your Parts
~ Gwilda Wiyaka ~
Nature, in all her infinite wisdom, has created
organisms within organisms that work together in perfect concert and synchronicity.
The earth itself is a living organism built from many and varied lifeforms.
Even our physical bodies are communities of organisms, with only a small
percent of the overall cell count being human.
Ages cycle, organisms and species come and go, but
homeostasis has been maintained – until now. At some point, humans started
taking things, including themselves, out of the circle of life, and treating
them as if they were “stand-alones” – as if what happened to one part had no
effect on the whole.
We failed to take into consideration we are so much
more that a sum of our parts. At first, the effects of this folly went
unnoticed, but now it is clear we are in a crisis of our own making.
We are confronted with extreme imbalances that
threaten all life. Species are dying in droves, human life expectancy and
overall health deteriorating.
Our next steps will determine our fate. Can we use
modern science married with a deeper understanding of the workings of nature to
turn this mess around?
