Interpretation

photo by Cristina

Recently, my lovely friend Cristina sent me a sweet tee shirt all the way from Brazil -- it is a joy to wear not only because the design features a pink, crowned kitty, but because the proceeds from the shirt go towards a cause that is very dear to my heart.

As the shirt was making it's way up towards me, my Lavanda ring was on its way down to Cris. There is something thrilling about the thought of a little creation of mine flying away and settling in a land I've never seen, and adorning the hand of a friend I've never met.

Seeing her photo of the ring, with her own elegant styling and the soft lighting so different from my harsh Florida sun, there is the feeling that it has been infused with meaning and a sense of belonging. Jewelry on a shelf is just a pretty bauble, but when it belongs to someone, it radiates life.
