Nola Black - I, Pearls & Snowflakes

A snowflake, a pearl and I walk into a bar. Absolutely no one is like us, and all was as it should be. Snowflakes; delicate, distinct, perfectly symmetrical, infinite. Pearls; rare, birthed, pristine, infinite. Likewise, we are distinct, unlimited in variation and infinitely faultless. No two people are exactly alike. This is a metaphor for god signing on our faces after creating us. Like the snowflake, the pearl, you, me, perfectly infinite.
