A Circle.
A very simple shape
But somehow it is also complex
We see circles in many places we travel
The shape of a car wheel
Occasional shape of the moon
The shape of my favorite cookie- more or less
But it is symbolic for so much more-
I was thinking about this while I was at state volleyball with my team. When you look at it- we all join in a circle before a game. We group together as an insignia of unity. In a circle all of our energy and spirit of the upcoming game comes together... and as one and we unite, if only for a second, as one team! A single being that desires the same thing!
In the story of King Arthur, he replaces the previous table with one that is shaped as a circle to reduce competition between knights. To bring "unity" to the court, per say.
Not only is 'circular' unity important in a team setting, or with others- it is important to have it within yourself.. Your biggest strength is courage from within yourself. That is the best weapon to be equipped with.. In any situation, but you have to know how to keep it under control as well.. You can't let your pride consume you.
--Strive for unity inside yourself... Become a circle.. in a sense. :)
