I don't think there's a virtue in relationship per se, yet I
  don't think we're isolated floating disconnected things either.

  I believe there is something intrinsic within things and ALSO
  their Roles that they play for everything else around them and
  also the forms that they take.

  I was never a fan of "You are who you are in relationship to
  others" because that prioritizes appearance or usage over the
  "what's inside".

  I don't see the need to prioritize one of the other really. But
  I suppose I'm a bit of a skeptical pantheist anyway i guess.
