Encounters
“It is the lives we encounter that make life worth living.”
Water
“Water is fluid, soft, and yielding. But water will wear away rock, which is rigid and cannot yield. As a rule, whatever is fluid, soft, and yielding will overcome whatever is rigid and hard. This is another paradox: what is soft is strong.

Shop Update: Planet Earth Series
I’ve just added the Planet Earth Series to my Etsy shop.
If you no longer see the piece you are looking for it’s because it has already sold.
If you purchase a ring, please let me know your size and I will cut it to fit you. If you are unsure of your size, here’s help.
Planet Earth Series
I will add the Planet Earth Series to my online shop tomorrow, Wednesday at 1 pm (CST).
I can cut these rings to fit any size between 5 and 10.5. If you need help finding your measurement, here are simple instructions.

“Those who do not travel,
who do not read, who do not listen to music,
who do not find grace in themselves
die slowly.”

like a buttercup
upon its branching stem-
save that it’s green and wooden-
I come, my sweet,
to sing to you.”
Planet Earth Ring IV.

Planet Earth Necklace II
“To be beautiful means to be yourself. You don’t need to be accepted by others. You need to accept yourself. When you are born a lotus flower, be a beautiful lotus flower, don’t try to be a magnolia flower. If you crave acceptance and recognition and try to change yourself to fit what other people want you to be, you will suffer all your life. True happiness and true power lie in understanding yourself, accepting yourself, having confidence in yourself.”

Script Ring VIII
I went to have my astrology chart read by a friend. She told me I needed to become a leader.
Lead with example? With words? By teaching? What does it mean to lead? For me, a leader has to trust herself.
I wish I could trust myself more often. Can inner confidence just happen, or is it earned? Is there a pill I can take to achieve it? Perhaps to lead means to fully inhabit my place in this world and make it as beautiful as I can.

Script Ring VI
“The woods were made for the hunters of dreams,
The brooks for the fisher of song;
To the hunters who hunt for the gunless game
The streams and the woods belong.
There are thoughts that moan from the soul of the pine
And thoughts in a flower-bell curled;
And the thoughts that are blown with the scent of the fern
Are as new and as old as the world.”

Script Rings
In this new series, I pay homage to ancient scripts. Their simplicity –and the meaning they carry (which most of us can’t understand)– has always moved me.
One of these rings may well depict a quote by Aulus Cornelius Celsus:
“Live in rooms full of light. Avoid heavy food. Be moderate in the drinking of wine. Take massage, baths, exercise, and gymnastics. Fight insomnia with gentle rocking or the sound of running water. Change surroundings and take long journeys. Strictly avoid frightening ideas. Indulge in cheerful conversation and amusements. Listen to music.”
