The tree of life has many branches. We are all a part of the tree; but also, beyond being a part, we are "inter-woven." We cannot see all the sides of the tree; much like the other side of the moon; but that doesn't mean its not there. We are all woven together so intricately that to separate us would be fatal. Our symbiosis is vital to the survival of the individual parts. It doesn't always make sense; but eventually it does. Have you ever remembered doing something or going somewhere; then getting a flashback or memory of a certain event from your past that makes more sense now, as though it were the important part of a puzzle that you couldn't have foreseen? Such is the tapistry of life. The backside of the cosmos is a lot of knotted and tied, freyed ratty strings; but the other side is a beautiful picture woven together by a master weaver! I am constantly amazed at the "precise" timings and meetings of events and peoples all coordiated and preceived by us as mere "circumstance" and/or "accident." But really, it's not! It's all part of the plan....a major Ocean's 11.
A good long hard look back at our pasts can revive our limping faiths. Somehow there has always been a tough, rough or terrible time that has passed. That we have survived. Something brought us through to a better time. Why not this time too? Therefore, we are strengthened by our pasts and that strength is relived in the future. That's cool jello!
