The Snake, The Crane, The Myth

                                                               


 

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:

The Snake, Crane and the myths.
