Three Ladies
Yesterday three ladies commented on my previous post. Ladies tend to go in threes, like Lachesis, Clothos and Atropos. And many others of literary and mythological significance.
I am often reminded of Robert Graves's thesis in The White Goddess, which is a little strenuous on the archaeological foundations and the imagination, not to mention the intellect, but is downright sinister anyway. It is also a beautiful idea, whether true or not. It digs deep into the underlying basis of the world, the flesh, and the devil. But I don't think of those as three ladies.

Ali's angels eh haha?
*heartily agrees*
yep! all my most treasured girl friendships are either formed in 2s or 3s, or 2+2 = 3 (me being the common denominator or intersecting set ahaha).
I don't really like forming friendship groups in 3s, but for female friends I somehow do anyway... For male friends nah, not really.
