Stand Out – Necklace

[tab title=”Inspiration”]

The “Stand Out” Necklace is the first of a new series of jewelry pieces that are very much inspired by creative geniuses such as Dr. Seuss and Lewis Carroll, to name a few, and whose “words” and “worlds” lift my spirit every time I read them, and -I think- fully resonate with the kinds of pieces I love making.

 

Jewelry can be a very unexpected way of affirming (modestly) a piece of who we are, our personality, our passions and beliefs.  The misunderstanding that many have, is that the idea of “wearing something to express ourselves” is for “others to see“; when in fact it is for ourselves alone.  It’s a way of exercising  our comfort level with ourselves. With our “authentic” self. It’s not to mold or force opinions about ourselves onto others, because the only opinion that matters, is our own.

 

Making peace and embracing our uniqueness is part of this life journey.  Some reach this place early in life and others a bit later.  Good thing is that life is not a race, but what is important is that whatever “speed” works best for us, we do get to this point of unconditional “self-love”. Because only when we “fill our cup” with our own love, are we truly able to fully and unconditionally love others.

These ideas are not only at the core of many of Dr. Seuss stories, but were written in a language that a “pure” Soul (like a child’s) not only understands, but remembers as the truths he/she was born with.

Hope you enjoy this piece too 

 

Are you affirming yourself? Are you standing out fearlessly? 

 

As always, if you LIKE this piece, please “LIKE” it, if you love it, please “SHARE” it on facebook or any other social media outlet that you enjoy (see the SHARING THE LOVE buttons on the right side of this screen). Your support is very much appreciated.

Much love dear friend,
