Rubber bands are used to hold things together or in the past we used them to roll up magazines and thus supply them or pass them on, etc. I find such a rubber band somehow fascinating: depending on the edition, it is very fine and yet very functional and for its fineness, I find it enormously tear-resistant and strong and just: functional. Since I have no idea how it is produced, I am also fascinated by the fact that I don't see a seam in the band. Or just to come up with the idea and implement it, to create such a ribbon. Remarkable. Of course, if overstretched and if they become porous, the bands can also tear. But then either the life span is used up and the tear is justified or there has been abuse. A human life therefore has many parallels for me with the rubber band: in all its simplicity, a great work. But also with an expiry date and not suitable for abuse.
I wish you an extraordinary day!
