something came in the mail yesterday something so special like I had never had before it was a simple piece of constructive art she calls “mojo” consisting of a seashell found in the distant land of Rhode Island and the small painted heart secreted on the backside of the “mojo” has a special meaning and then back to the front are three pieces of sea glass green, white and red picked by her loving hands there is a band of silver wire wrapped around itself five times I know these things by themselves doesn’t mean very much per se ahhh . . . but the workmanship and the thoughts behind each piece mean absolutely the world to me the sea shell she found in that distant land of Rhode Island she was positively thinking of moi the small painted heart on the back a drop of her blood in the paint signifies that she loves me the three pieces of sea glass means something very personal we both understand ahhh . . . then there is the silver wire wrapped around itself five times signifying her five fingers which indicates her loving hand holding my heart so you see I received something oh so very extraordinary yesterday ©May 13, 2015 / Jerry Pat Bolton [This message has been edited by JerryPat2 (05-14-2015 07:30 AM).] |

The beauty in this is what all the little pieces meant together when seen as a whole. You paint it vividly, Jer. I am happy for you as well. Michael |

my dear friend, What a powerful gift you have received! If I were you I would hang it round my neck rather than from a nail on the wall. You are indeed quite special to be gifted in such a way. I am so happy for you that you have such a person in your life! All that positive energy they send your way will do you a world of good! You are a fortunate man. ~L |

It is indeed wonderful, when a gift of this kind carries such great meaning. I agree with Lori, by wearing it on your skin its positive vibes will even amplify. Much enjoyed and happy for you. Have seen it on fb and it is truly very beautiful! Margherita |
