Some food for thought today Angie " Our minds are still overcoming centuries of conditioning to 'apartness' thinking. The holistic world view lifts beyond such separation. We learn to see Truth as a hovering crystalline structure of many facets. You pick up one glint, I another, and the separatist reason can too easily conclude that, since I know and can prove I am right, you must be wrong. All the glints together make up the Truth and we are finding that true 'conversation' (a turning-about-together) is an art of helping each other to see the wonder of the whole revealed in every part. This lifts it above intellectual discussion or that debased form of exchange called argument. In holistic thinking we become eclectic and learn to draw our truth from many different complementary sources. " by Trevelyan, a preface to " The New Holistic Herbal " by Hoffman.
