I was thinking about jewelry making this morning, being an artist, is this all I want to do with this life? What could I do to give, put positive energy into the stream of life?
I came up with a few things that I’d like to share. I could teach classes for the developmentally challenged, there are plenty of after school projects and teachers looking for a patient person to teach with reasonable prices. Another wonderful idea that came from a friend of mine was to teach classes at senior centers, especially for the pioneers of our community that have mobility issues.
There is also a great reward in making reasonably priced amulets or selling tumbled stones, it’s a way to help and put some of my experience and accumulated knowledge to great use. I know I have done this for friends and it is, well the words are tough to find for a feeling so big, to have a friend thank me and benefit from using the stone. I should note here the best way I have found to match people with stones is to put a variety of tumbled stones in front of the person and have them choose the one that stands, or kinda pops from the pile. Even better have them choose by touch eyes closed *smile*
So all of that said this is just a beginning and I am very blessed to have the support I do in my exploration and my art (what artist doesn’t need feedback), from friends I can trust to tell the truth and when needed reel me in and point me in the right direction *Big Smile*
I post this with the hope that another artist will find some of this inspiring.
Be Well and Blessed ~Dee
