In different times, same ornament elements were perceived and used in different ways, depending on people’s beliefs and views of the surrounding reality. Ornaments were attached a special interpretation, visual solution and style to. For instance, in ancient heathen beliefs a rose (rosette) was the flower of goddess Venus – the symbol of love and beauty; in the Middle Ages it symbolized the flower of the Mother of God, and in Islam it is the symbol of heavenly life and cosmic power: “rose blazes as the gift of the sun, while its petals are small moons”. Ancient decorative elements have been preserved in traditional arts of the peoples of Africa, Australia and Oceania, in ornaments of South American Indians. Their ornaments and decorative motifs include both real and geometric, conventionally stylized shapes.
My body was born on the night of 23 April, and my soul entered the body on a great holiday of the night of 30 April – 1 May. Throughout my life I’ve been suffering from a helper syndrome: I’ve always wanted to support and help people. At school I protected the weak and fought for them, I married a man in a wheelchair, and when I needed money I got employed at a nursing home without any hesitation. And all this was a deep inner need, without any violence against my ego.
