I love the art of Monet. Quite possible my favorite painter. The thing about Monet’s art, though, is that it has little meaning close up. The detail is in stepping back and seeing the whole painting.
This is the world we are living in. We are far too focused on what separates us and fail to see the contribution of the individual. We compare. We divide. We only see the dots of paint.
We have the choice of standing too close and only seeing what supports our narrative and preconceived vision of the world, or we can step back and see the Purpose of each “dot of paint.”
“It is the harmony of the diverse parts, their symmetry, their happy balance; in a word it is all that introduces order, all that gives unity, that permits us to see clearly and to comprehend at once both the ensemble and the details.”—Henri Poincare
