Cells

| No Comments
So we are each cells in the body of [blank].  This [blank] is something humans can not easily see (be aware) because we are such small parts of a larger whole.  Some may place this line of thought in the category of spirit/god, but for the sake of this piece, I pose that this is some kind of entity that is as real as a human body, but on such a grand scale that our awareness of it is sketchy. I would also maintain, for the sake of this piece at least, that this is not a replacement or competitor to god/spirit, but exists in the world between what we think of as god/spirit and our own more tangible world.

So, assuming that we can't really see this [blank] due to its scale. One question might be what does it look like?  Another question might be, as an individual cells, where do I reside in this [blank] i.e., am I the equivalent of a cell in the foot, brain, heart and so on?  Another scale type question might be, could each cell be defined, not as an "individual" human but as species.  So then the question would be, where does the human species reside in [blank]? What does time look like to this [blank]?  If the scale is so large as to be virtually unknowable, would time work differently? While galactic scale seems to immense to us, in reality, all scale is relative, so maybe our earth is a cell, or our solar system, or our galaxy?
