I love making jewelry. I love the hours spent planning, sawing, filing, sanding, soldering, polishing. I love having something concrete at the end of my dedicated work, something I can hold in my hands and show to the world. I love making things that are beautiful.
If I could spend the rest of my life seeing the world as beautiful, if I could feel that every day, breathe it, live it, create it and share it with other people, I would be content. I can think of nothing that would make me more complete than a life spent showing others how beautiful the world is, how beautiful other people can be.
This is a good dream, one well worth the effort of keeping. I now have to add another line to my list of life lessons:
You can never have a dreary day when you learn to laugh with the rain.
"If you have the courage to question your existence, you have the guts to change it." - Ben D.
Life is beautiful.
