Here on Vancouver Island, we are experiencing wetter and colder weather than normal.  Certainly, 2 years ago, it was hot enough that everyone wanted to be out at the beach.  

~ Mary Oliver   One day you finally knew

what you had to do, and began,

though the voices around you

kept shouting

their bad advice --

though the whole house

began to tremble

and you felt the old tug

at your ankles.

"Mend my life!"

each voice cried.

But you didn't stop.

You knew what you had to do,

though the wind pried

with its stiff fingers

at the very foundations,

though their melancholy

was terrible.

It was already late

enough, and a wild night,

and the road full of fallen

branches and stones.

But little by little,

as you left their voice behind,

the stars began to burn

through the sheets of clouds,

and there was a new voice

which you slowly

recognized as your own,

that kept you company

as you strode deeper and deeper

into the world,

determined to do

the only thing you could do --

determined to save

the only life that you could save.

These two necklaces are siblings.  This first one is larger and has a big personality.  It makes a statement all on it's own.

The second one is smaller and shorter.  

It likes to hang around with other necklaces, especially longer dangly ones.  

Which one is your style?  Check them both out here.
