Stand on the beach and look out on the ocean. The water as far as you can see, and further still as you imagine it is. The waves roiling at your feet; gently rising swells secretly concealing their perceptible power until the land intrudes. The vast sheet of water from the surface to the depths, visible and invisible, all encompassing appearing before you. The familiar patterns, temperature, and feel of each totally unique experience just moments apart from one another.
We know that each molecule of water is touching each other one seamlessly throughout. The basics of the hydrogen bond. A foot in the water 10,000 miles away is directly connected to your foot. Every bit of solid matter pushes against this fabric in the way you might lay down individual objects onto a sheet before sorting them.
A child takes a bucket of water from the sea in play, this water is separated now? This water is still connected. It's connected to the air, or ground, or vacuum that is connected to the edge of the water somewhere again. And so throughout there exists this connection of everything to everything else. If you can see it in water first......
