Very adept analogy. All you need are the concentration and patience to do the work.

Now that you have them untangled, you can either use an old round toilet paper cylinder and thread each cable line through that or you can rubber band them so that doesn't happen again

This reminds me that when we try to untangle the messes, challenges, and problems in life by ourself, it works much better when we consult with the Lord and ask His help. He can see into our future and knows the best steps to take in order to have a successful life.
