+ C H E R I S H is the word +

 JLY: I cannot think of a better way to describe how I feel when I look at, hold, wear & ponder over your artwork/my collectibles than to resort to these gentle & sincere words, from the song by the band The Association: Cherish is the word...

Now, more than ever, this old song represents the best of these newly tangled emotions swirling yet hidden inside of me. It is my love letter too. So much to miss, it hurts. So little time, it burns. Dreams. Plans. Partnership. It aches: Perish is the word that more than applies to the hope in my heart each time I realize... your creativity is no longer. Your creativity now rests in all that you Had created. It is over. That breaks me. It is what was. That crushes my heart. Darkness shades the light. How it saddens me.

I have a project to start & a work-in-progress to complete with those special, cherished, beads you gifted me. Gosh, how I want to sit with you & talk ALL about them....and more. There was so much more to talk about. And although my inspiration is immersed in a thick fog today, just know, the sun will rise again & I will come back to them. I will.  Born of Sacred Ways & Native Souls. Lightness dispels the dark. 

And I do cherish you

And I do cherish you

Cherish is the word
