Okay, who's going to write the book on biometric design as it relates to churches/org structures?

The whole is made of multiple clusters made of multiple flowers, each of which is individually fertilized producing its own seed. Each flower is composed of m/f parts distributed across scope of the umbel. And while all are joined to stalk, the stalk hides underneath the flower.
The strength & centrality of the stalk is hidden b/c its purpose is to feed, support, & supply the flowers with what they need to produce life. All are joined to it, all depend on it, but the flowers don't exist to support the stalk.
Additionally, while different parts play distinct, important roles, all parts are working toward the same end: the health & well-being of the plant so it can go thru various life stages to produce seed for hundreds of more plants yet to come.
B/c while we focus on the flowers, the flowers are fed by roots & leaves, supported by stalk & petioles. And these flowers are only eye-catching so they can attract pollinators for necessary work of reproduction. The seed & future life is end goal.
People love the natural world for different reasons. For me, it's the genius of design & how everything relates to everything else.
Queen Anne's Lace is beautiful in its own right, but giving attention to the details of its form & structure opens up so many other things.
*biomimetic design*
Goodness, give me a break autocorrect.
Goodness, give me a break autocorrect.
(FYI, in first tweet, should be biomimetic design, not biometric. Apparently, the next problem we need nature to help us solve is autocorrect...)
