This piece was made for my son who lives in Washington.
He has a heart of gold.
The intention of these meditation beads is to symbolize his:
Funny side—
Flexible, rad & random, wildly musical, spontaneous, creative, easygoing, a relaxed companion, liberally sprinkled with side-splitting hilarity.
Serious side—Strength, Loyalty, determination, protection, able to do hard things, wisdom through experience, endurance over long periods and when life gets tough, firmness in personal truth. The gears and metal parts indicate his intelligence and ability to work things out.
His heart of gold—Has a golden warrior at the center, a faithful father, a loyal lover, whose natural instinct is protection of the weak and vulnerable, tenderness to the small and young, the gift of generosity and joy, has kind eyes, gives everyone a chance, and genuinely cares, has a quiet center.
Cool! I like how the funny and the serious don't look like weird opposites. They look like two halves of a whole.
ReplyDeleteThanks Lisa. I feel like it came together well and represented the different strengths in his personality. He's awesome.
