Puzzle’s Edge

little-colorado-gorge-i-3687

We cross the plains and wander into the high desert until we reach a great chasm that appears impassable…It is wide, long, and deep…There is no way around it, over it, or through it. It has divided the land and the land here can never be rejoined. We ponder the landscape on this side and that, marveling at the intricate textures and patterns…though the two sides are uniquely shaped by weather and time, their patterns and colors make them appear more alike than they are different…we look again at the divide and see it for what it is, a multifaceted puzzle’s edge that, while baring its soul, binds the two sides together and reminds them that they are similarly composed. If we look deeply into the divide, we may just come away with a better understanding of ourselves.
