No smooth skin for this gourd, but that just adds to its beauty.

Maybe imperfect, but unique! =O

During this challenge I thought a lot about the concept, and how it especially appears among plants and animal. Something "imperfect" often means some growth disorders or disabilities. And for example animals (including homo sapiens) often groom themselves to either look better or get rid of dirt or parasites.

But then there is something as fascinating as whales taking care of their disabled member of the pack:

qu' est-ce la perfection ? Quasimodo n ' était pas parfait si l 'on prend pour référence de la perfection Johnny Weismuller , par exemple. Mais Johnny n ' était lui même , absolument pas parfait quand on applique les théories idéalistes de Platon ( mythe de la caverne ) . Seul " Dieu" ( que l 'on y croit , ou pas ) est parfait !
Ta courge est parfaite ! peut- être pas belle , mais certainement délicieuse ! et c 'est l 'essentiel :-)

I simply adore wonderful warty gourds. The texture is so much fun and they are so colorful and interesting to look at. Did you see the pictures I have of our instrument made from a gourd? I will give you a link! www.ipernity.com/doc/290645/48592540
