Description
"When you are at the end of your rope,
tie a knot in it and hang on."
--Thomas Jefferson
Another vine from the plant in yesterday's photo. In this image, I see a Picassoesque face, an natural yin-yan, and a mini-gordian knot. ----- THE GORDIAN KNOT For people the world over, the Gordian Knot represents the difficult, the intractable and often the insolvable problem. In ancient Macedonia thinking was much the same as it is today. Little kingdoms fought bitterly for their lands. Pretenders rose and fell. No one had vision. None had a plan. All was struggle. Except for one
