I often wear a stack of bracelets with several birth stones - blue sapphire is mine, peridot is my mother's, red ruby is my best pal's and blue topaz is my sister's favorite but not her birth stone. The irony is I bought all the bracelets at seriously reduced price without consideration of what meaning the gems available had in my personal life. At that time, I did not yet know my best pal - but would meet her later that year. These bracelets catch and reflect the light that pulls me through winter's darkest gray days.
In considering the number of gems - Generationally Enriching Matrons of Spirit - in our pews at church... Barbara, Mary, Shirley, Edna and others, I thought "What an amazing group of women that know our entire church's history. We should bottle that resource while it is still available." I'm trying to figure out a manner and a venue that would provide a way to do so and have yet to come up with a good idea...
