Archaeologists in Pompeii just discovered a decaying wooden box containing - are you ready for this? - the hidden treasures of an ancient Roman sorceress! . The cache of objects included crystals, bells, amulets, dolls, beads, and a tiny carved skull. Many of the objects symbolize fertility and love or protect against bad luck. . Does anyone else think this is basically the coolest thing ever?? A perfect example of how we’ve been adorning ourselves basically forever, and to dismiss jewelry as frivolous negates all the real human magic imbued in it by both the maker(s) and the wearer 💫 .

This year my applications got rejected from a lot of the craft fairs and events I was really hoping to be a part of. I’m posting this cuz I can’t help but feel like a failure when I don’t get ‘accepted’ but it’s a necessary reminder to continue to strive to do better and improve. It’s discouraging to feel like you’re not good enough, but I’m working to alter my reactions and start to welcome failure. I’m really into failure right now. I constantly fail - So I started researching failure and what it really means. Initially I was trying to avoid it, but now I wanna embrace it. What I’ve learned is there’s no such thing as failure, only the lessons you need to learn to become successful, to get to where you need to go. . So even tho getting rejected can suck, these setbacks create the mental calluses that help growth and resilience. When obstacles arise, find a way around them. When setbacks happen, bounce back. When people reject you - move on. It’s not personal, just par for the course of achieving anything . Sometimes on social media it looks like we all have our shit together but I like sharing / seeing reminders that we’re all trying to figure things out and get pissed off or overwhelmed or feel hopeless and cry on the floor in between taking the cute photos and liking each others comments etc…  No matter what you’re doing - putting yourself out there can be vulnerable and disappointing and it’s easy to hide/bury that - which can make us say ‘fuck it’ when really we’re all going through it and should be proud of even trying. And do you know why the most creative thinkers and ambitious people ‘fail’ and get rejected the most? It’s cuz they try the most - so don’t give up, try a new way, learn the lesson and enjoy watching yourself grow 🌱
Shop dog, always hard at work 🙄
