Dot and Line Silver Earrings

Jane A Gordon: Jane Gordon Jewelry

Sterling silver line shaped earrings with one diamond dot. These earrings were inspired by a book I read as a child, "The Dot and the Line- A Romance in Higher Mathematics" about a line who falls in love with a dot, who is in love with a squiggle. It is the story of how the line becomes the best he can be and wins the dot's love. That is how I remembered it.

Reading the book to my niece I was surprised to realize it is all mathematical puns - hilarious for adults as well as children.

To be happy, it's essential to be the best we can be, true to ourselves. With that self understanding we let go of worrying about what others think of us. We set ourselves free.
