I have been fascinated by working with geodes, as of late.  Since my earliest memories, I have looked to nature to help me grow, create wonder and find solace during difficult times.

When I look at the roughness juxtaposed against the fine  glistening points in geodes, it reminds me that we all have  light and darkness within. We all have places that we shine, others that are duller and may need extra polishing.  Our light is constantly shifting, therefore, our abilities in our work,  relationships and life itself are always in flux.  Some days we shine and others we may seem quite dim.  Through communication,  sharing and being open, we can help ourselves and others to show brilliance more easily.
