You see, when weaving a blanket, an Indian woman leaves a flaw in the weaving of that blanket to let the soul out.

Cacti are distinctive and unusual plants,
which are adapted to extremely arid
and hot environments,
showing a wide range of anatomical and
physiological features which conserve water.
Their stems have expanded into green
succulent structures containing the chlorophyll
necessary for life and growth,
while the leaves have become the spines
for which cacti are so well known.

All cacti are native to the America’s and surrounding islands, with one exception: Rhipsalis baccifera.

Creating a new theory is not like
destroying an old barn and erecting
a skyscraper in its place.

It is rather like climbing a mountain,
gaining new and wider views,
discovering unexpected connections
between our starting points
and its rich environment.

But the point from which we started out
still exists and can be seen,
although it appears smaller
and forms a tiny part of our broad view
gained by the mastery of the obstacles
on our adventurous way up.

Albert Einstein

After climbing a great hill, one only finds that there are many more hills to climb.
