How many half-brained ideas we have! Analysis, logic, serial, competing, dominating! Remember we also have another part to our brains, and minds: synthesis, wholistic, parallel, cooperating, self-organizing. Not opposites, but contraries, necessary to each other. Include, please.

We eagerly look for the first robin in the spring. Why do we not notice the last in autumn?

:- Doug.

The man had but one hand
The woman one eye
Another one ear
This one only one nostril
That but one leg
Grasp you can’t, nor see, hear, smell, approach
Any better than they
If you won’t
Admit we are more than one

“For the next minute, I’d like you all to try just breathing in, no breathing out.” We cannot do it. Circles are required. Exchanges. It is not just with the atmosphere, for eventually it would be used up. We are exchanging with other species—the plants: trees, flowers, grass, all that’s green. Thus, we cannot live on inspiration alone. We must expire. We must conspire.
