But I think it's what we need to do. The facts of life here and now are what they are, regardless of what I think of them. It gets trickier with symbols like the eagle, the American flag, the Union Jack, the $ sign, a photo of George Bush or Muqtada Al-Sadr. What do they mean, and how do I respond to them?Ruthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14204074161539605133noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21312708.post-1155084675237761322006-08-08T20:51:00.000-04:002006-08-08T20:51:00.000-04:00Yes, and isn't it also amazing when you have that ...Yes, and isn't it also amazing when you have that sense that your interpretation is the most advanced and accurate interpretation you've witnessed so far. Or perhaps someone interprets something and you take on this new interpretation because it makes your old interpretation seem shallow and not as well thought out. And when you have come to the conclusion that you know the one and only true interpretation, is that not in fact the moment you quit growing?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21312708.post-1155057494743970912006-08-08T13:18:00.000-04:002006-08-08T13:18:00.000-04:00That's a good site, Ginnie.

Humanly speaking, it's the BALANCE of the eagle's traits that is valuable as a symbol.<BR/><BR/>What I find so interesting is that each person brings to language and perspective -- interpretation -- her/his own truth. How we understand each other at all is sometimes beyond me.Ruthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14204074161539605133noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21312708.post-1155054906963726202006-08-08T12:35:00.000-04:002006-08-08T12:35:00.000-04:00You have posed such a thought-provoking question a...You have posed such a thought-provoking question and conversation, Ruth! Out of curosity, I looked up what the <A HREF="http://www.manataka.org/page236.html#EAGLE" REL="nofollow"><BR/>Eagle Guide</A> represents in Native American lore. I can so much identify with THAT eagle and would LOVE for it to represent what the U.S.A. identifies as their symbol. Alas, alack--they have much to learn from their Native-American forbears, I see!Ginnie Harthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14014434422568561157noreply@blogger.com
