Reflection for the Week - July 23

Drawing conclusions about the world from solely one perspective is reductionistic. By contrast, we want to recognize that reality has to be viewed from a multiplicity of intricate angles and variable vistas. Whether climbing a high Alpine peak or walking through a city, much of what we perceive deserves a skillful attention to detail that may first escape us. 'Looking again,' perhaps, should be a key feature of being holistic, founded as it is on the exceedingly complex character of nature and God.
