Evolution emerges out of individuality.

When evolution comes up with something novel, this is how it happens: differing life-forms collaborate. They collaborate symbiotically: they are in deep resonance, happy, content, fulfilled, satisfied. From this symbiotic collaboration, they decide to form a new individual whole. What were independent organisms once upon a time are now one seemingly new individual organism. Bacteria are the primary life form. Humans are symbiotic beings on a symbiotic planet.
