Maybe we have a similar image. Mine is that "life" was encoded, somehow, into molecules, and is constantly seeking to express itself by combining, blindly, into structures that, for the vast majority of the time, will never lead to that expression. But the very symmetry of fractals (not symmetrical as in the balance of two and two, but asymmetrical symmetry through harmonious balance) makes me wonder if life is just an example of fractals. I don't have good language for saying these ideas.
