Being perched in the USA this history-making day it is fitting to present an Eagle. It is a symbol of
the pride of our nation Perched means one is high-up to take a view of the world landscape.
What's still soaring is the mythical tale: It is a battle between a Snake and a Crane. The Crane is that
beautiful the long-necked, wide-winged bird featured in Chinese Art.
Interestingly, a form of exercise has been handed down imitating the twists, turns of this
mythical battle. It's called : Tai Chi (Tai Chi Chaun).
The antagonist:
"It's California-styled, it's not authentic"
"It's too tame, people want action"
"It takes years to master"
From the protagonist:
" The Horse head rising to the heavens"
" Cloud hands"
" White Crane Spreads his Wings"
The list goes on. Tai Chi is the complete package: Exercise, Self Defense that can be of benefit
throughout a lifetime. Ignore? Explore?
Meanwhile, what is real is today is a historic day in the USA. Time to soar above the landscape:
