RAW 52

a ring inspired by movement and silvery swans... feathers moving and beating... flying into the air, free... like dandelion parachutes blowing in the wind... carrying with them our wishes... 

~~~

needing to make manifest and work through the impending skin shedding that approaches... thinking as always of my grandmother who taught me to both knit and crochet... a snake of 
sorts - signifying rebirth... 

~~~

let no one - not even your self - suck the life out of you... follow your heart's desire, seek love, gaze upon the moon, celebrate each day, remain humble... return to life... 

'thousands of tired, nerve-shaken, over-civilized people

 are beginning to find out that going to the mountain is going home;

 that wilderness is necessity; 

that mountain parks and reservations are useful 

not only as fountains of timber and irrigating rivers, 

but as fountains of life.'
