I wear a gold crown of thorns on my right index finger. I wear it to remind me of the deep spirituality that comes with conscious living. I also love being barefoot in nature; it keeps me grounded broadening and solidifying the spiritual lessons I learn. Today I was lying next to the pond and took off the crown of thorns and placed it on a few leaves of grass. The metaphor really struck home. My own evolution and its growing pains, the evolution of sentient life; a crown of thorns and a blade of grass. I was so excited I came into the house to get the camera so I could share it...I forgot the ring and now, it's soaking up the sunshine and earth down somewhere near the pond. I'll get the metal detector and find it later.
