"Natural pearls are 100% 'pearl' or nacre. It is thought that natural pearls form under a set of accidental conditions when a microscopic intruder or grain of sand enters an oyster (mollusk) and settles inside the shell. The oyster, being irritated by the intruder, secretes the pearl substance called nacre to cover the irritant. This process is repeated for many years, thus producing a real pearl which may (or may not) be found by man. For a natural pearl to form with a nice round or oval shape, and be free of any flaws, is actually a real-life "miracle." The odds of a perfect natural pearl are 1 in a million. "
..thinking of nature and its beautiful display of resilience, evolution and magnificence...
We all at one time or another have "irritants" that lodge themselves within.
manifesting in numerous ways including muscle pain, emotional distress, or some say even-cysts and cancer.
one can cultivate pearls of wisdom within, by learning from, recognizing and changing the irritants within by secreting the nacre of love, acceptance and tolerance.The time to rejoice and celebrate in the miracle of transformation will soon follow.
we are the mollusks
the sea is within us
ebbing and flowing with the moon as she cycles
time is a circle
and we are the spiral
we cannot escape the perfect curl of the wave of light
we cannot hide from its infinite sight
for always it will be our guide
