Aside from the very first cell—think the first sperm represented by the first man, Adam, going through the fallopian tube to reach the egg, the divine creator, and from there a journey of loneliness—we were never meant to be a single cell. We flourish as pairs; our bodies are made to pair.
We were created to connect with one another; we weren’t meant to be alone. No one has made it alone into anything other than that very first atom, and it had to split itself into pairs.
Pigeons, telegrams, phones, faxes, horses and carriages, cars, trains, planes, microphones, internet, movies, plays, books, poetry, and religions: We have been attempting to connect with one another for centuries, but we have continued to fail because our failure to accept the others fully.
We have been reaching out to others, but we have been doing so as preachers. Each group thinks their way is best and wishes for the world to see it as they do, and to follow them into the light; the world will be a better place.
I hope we can reach a point in history where we can all sit around the bonfire, discuss our tales, and create one grand tale of human unity and perseverance.
