"Your mala is beautiful!"
"Thank you," I respond.
Inner voice lovingly whispers: "Give it to her..."
"NO!" I shouted.
The voice was persistent -- "Give it to her."
"No, No, No, No! I don't want to....It's my favorite. " I whined.
"Give it to her. She needs it. Let go & Trust, Child." The voice reasoned.
"Ok, fine," I said, "I'll make you a deal... If she comments at all on it during the last day, I'll give it to her."
The fate of the last day?
I gave her my most cherished mala.
The exchange.....
Bittersweet.
Sweet because it was a gift and she cried with Joy.
Bitter? Well, that's the face I was wearing.

Fueled by this illusory loss, I returned to Denver and rushed to the store where I had originally bought the piece, pleading for a new one "exactly like it". Much to my dismay, the endearing shopowner smiled & laughed in my face! "No no no," she said in her sweet Nepalese accent, "But I will teach you how to make one for yourself....."

These objects are an offering from my Heart and a representation of my journey. They are ever-evolving symbols of Awakening and keys to our Remembrance. Yoga is my life practice. The stones are my teachers and the mantras, prayers. As I listen deeper, I realize these prayer malas are tools for connecting and an opportunity to tune in and recognize the Mystery unfolding in each moment.
Thank you for listening...
I hope to adorn your beautiful self one day.
