Holy crap Tom! Your words always resonate at a very deep level. From our first encounter in Honolulu many years ago. I swear we are brothers from a different mother. Thank you. Bless you. Love you.

Mahalo, my friend. In reality, we are brothers from the same Mother.

Yes.

Reality is a relationship, and existence is interaction. I have enjoyed reading Italian physicist Carlo Rovelli. He makes the same point from the standpoint of physics. "Objects have no properties outside of interaction." Null. "To understand nature, we must focus on these interactions rather than on isolated objects." Metaphysics and physics are alike in this respect.

Indeed. The question is whether that other-oriented relational understanding moves one to other-oriented relational love, because that is Reality.

Flickeringly, yes.
