If you are a poet, you will see clearly that there is a cloud floating in this sheet of paper.

If the cloud is not here, the sheet of paper cannot be here either. So we can say that the cloud and the paper inter-are. Interbeing is a word that is not in the dictionary yet, but if we combine the prefix inter with the verb to be, we have a new verb, inter-be. --Thich Nhat Hanh
