Today I was photographing my mala necklaces with my phone camera and then using my phone to upload listings onto my site. Suddenly I remembered when I first began making these necklaces back in 2005. I had a small digital camera for the photos which i had to maneuver in front of a mirror to get shots wearing the necklaces, and then download to my laptop ans upload onto my see goddess designs site I am incredibly grateful for the gradual advancements that have made my life much easier.

Today I walked to the post office to mail out some necklaces and get some groceries. It's not a long walk, only a mile, but there was a wind building up and its supposed to rain later so I left early. On the way a man stopped to pick me up and I accepted the ride, having learned that its the practice here to pick people up alongside the road.
Later after mailing out my package and getting my groceries I went to Ace Hardware to get tiny batteries for my voice recorder and a Melitta pour-through filter. While I was digging into my purse for something a woman noticed right away that I'd dropped a piece of paper from my bag and we smiled "maybe I'll need that". After purchasing the items I was struggling a little bit just to get the package into my grocery bag and the sweet young girls behind the counter rushed over to help me. I had walked almost all the way home when a young man stopped to see if I needed a ride, but I was just about home so I just said "next time" I haven't blogged in awhile, but this seemed like a worthy reason. I feel very held on this day here on Molokai. love to you all...robin Today I remembered that reconnecting with Kauai also means reconnecting with the healing work I began doing after I left my job as an Art Therapist. Yesterday a friend was having a difficult time and asked if I could do a healing. I went to my beach and meditated on the water and light and spent the day in that beautiful spot. Later I heard from her that she had an emotional release coupled with some insight about the root of her pain. I'm so grateful to have helped and I thought its time again to put the message out that this is something I can offer on a donation basis to anyone who needs some support. Aloha Robin
I've been spending most mornings at the water, either sitting, walking or swimming. Sometimes it feels impossible to leave this peace, but the world goes on and eventually I must return to it.
Feeling quiet inside after the storm. It was really only rain and a little wind. Picked up some orange and pink shells for a necklace, tucking them into the spandex of my bathing suit:) They stayed in when I went into the water!
It came on kind of suddenly; the need to stop the road journey that I had started in July. Now it was late September and much of the country was cooling off, plus an election was on the horizon. It was time to stop and let some ideas bubble to tbe surface.
