Do you ever look at a large wheel with spokes with interest? The centre could be you or your family! The spokes the different areas of your life all connected but independent. Your skills! Your faith! your knowledge! Your life! On a larger scale like a community with the families, businesses, services all linked but separate- the town, the city, the street at its centre. When we look at the universe there are similarities too. Our galaxy with the sun at the centre! Did that inspire someone to make a wheel with spokes? It is interesting to see how one concept is used over and over. We learn from history that the invention of the wheel changed many things. Going round and round- wagons, irrigation systems, water moved to make a mill grind wheat and too many items to mention. How many things even in modern times use the wheel in varied forms! Even our lives are like a circle which is a wheel by another name? We often say life comes full circle. Rarely giving little thought to ancient themes or items that we continue to use today. Each generation thinks they have invented everything. But remember we do not have to reinvent the wheel!
