Suites or sets of brooches are not always planned. Often David imagines other options/alternatives that require further exploration, otherwise lunch won’t taste the same. Here is one of those “lunch needs to taste better” times.

Waking early and anticipating the magic waiting within this space, hidden in the amazing potential of these simple tools makes each new dawn, for David an unfolding adventure and a spine tingling ‘wait and see!’
No, not the ‘L’ Ranger’s Mask again! Of course not, just in the same imagery time span. If you took a flight (of fantasy/mind) and then a kite with a long red string, true happiness might be your destiny. Hand to mouth, heart to mind, hand to string making the ultimate connection – sky to earth – hand to mouth – a soul connection.

It all seemed so simple, an easy in and then out. But, as we all learn through experience, life is never that easy, is it?

The cave you fear to enter holds the treasure you seek. Fear of the unknown is our greatest fear. Many of us would enter a tiger’s lair before we would enter a dark cave. While caution is a useful instinct, we lose many opportunities and much of the adventure of life if we fail to support the curious explorer within us.”
– Joseph Campbell, the man, the myth the legend.
