Millions and millions of atoms all decide to hold hands and work together to allow the marvel of a cells' possibility. As such, each cell can then be conceived of as being, a living organism unto itself. Then, what happens is millions and millions of cells decide to all hold hands and work together to allow the marvel of the human body or the animal body or the plant body or whatever . . . to be possible. Ah huh, I thought to myself, my original thoughts had been confirmed. Atoms make-up molecules.
Molecules make up matter, of which cells are a part.
Cells make up bodies. Bodies, animate and inanimate, inhabit the Earth. The Earth is part of our solar system. And last but not least, our solar system is part of the universe. We are all a part of the same thing.
