Unity and Diversity



Whether we have an English garden or a city orchestra we can appreciate the rich sights and smells and the wonderful sounds of music that come forth because of diversity - in the context of unity - from the uniqeness and the blends of many gifts.

Not all blossom at the same time and season, and not everybody is even (supposed to be) on the same page at the same time (though all the players, pray God, are on the same musical number) . . .

And then there's the queston of the gardener and the maestro - the necessary leaders, enablers, those who call forward the beauty of what will bless.
