Okay David's challenge was for his 41st birthday.  So, we had to come up with something that would symbolize 41.

I thought, and thought, and thought.  I thought some more...and I thought about quotes, and words with 41 letters (there are not any in the english language).  I thought and thought even more...and then I thought of one of my favorite symbols (which oddly is not included in his piece...How did I miss that.).  It is an Adinkra symbol that means "Gods Time is the Best Time."  Then I said to myself...self...wouldn't it be great to give him symbols that have meanings that are related to life.  Something for reflection, a bit of learning, a bit of culture (although it is not mine, per se, but a beautiful one indeed).  There are more than 41 symbols, I just picked the ones that I thought would be interesting, inspiring, and empowering...and so for you...David...

41 Adinkra Symbols and there meanings. (it is a bit larger than 12" x 12", but you did not specify a size...smiles)  You can not see the one on top in this picture.  Yes its 41.  whew..David I hope you like it..
