			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>My dad once showed this to me as a demonstration of synergy, where the whole is different than the sum of its parts. If you take six segments, you can compose them into two whole triangles. That&#8217;s using two dimensions. Were you to recombine these segments using three dimensions, you could form a tetrahedron &#8230; with four triangular sides.</p>
<p>Human relationships work similarly. Let&#8217;s look at one person with two separate friends. Those friends could come or go, the others wouldn&#8217;t know the difference. Now say those separate friends met and became friends, too. The three form a triadic relationship, which you might also call a small trust network; each provides an incentive for the other two to get along, since they&#8217;re all friends.</p>
<p>Now add a second triad to the mix; were all six people to meet, the confluence would result in four small trust networks, where there were only two prior. This is why it&#8217;s fun to introduce friends to each other. It&#8217;s also why things like <a title="abundance" href="http://abundanceleague.org" target="_blank">the Abundance League</a> are so amazing.</p>
