I think that a totem should be made up of multiple objects, so I put three items on mine. Gears, the Thinker, and Alpha. After a little work with editing some pictures, their color, and lighting I got this:
Its not a flag, but it is a symbol, something that I could use to represent me.
The gears have multiple meanings for me. I like to take objects, ideas and problems and look at them logically and step by step, see how they work (or don't work), how one thing leads to another and how they all fit together. This is one of the reasons why I enjoy mathematics.
The Thinker is rather self-explanatory. I take time to ponder and contemplate things, even if there is no practical gain to them, I will think about things just for the sake of having something to ponder.
The Alpha has two meanings for me. The first is that it is a letter, both a Greek and English one, and I enjoy writing. Aside from symbolizing writing it also is the first letter in the alphabet; thus, I think it is a good symbol for myself in that I try to put all the effort I can into almost everything I do. I don't normally settle for the second best I can do.

This is really great! :)
ReplyDeletePersonally, I like that the alpha symbol resembles the Thinker's pose. And is also similar to the gear, or at least a part of it. Nice choice.
