A recent treat for myself — a blue and gold pietersite that reminds me of Starry Night by Van Gogh. I saw it and fell in love. I tried not to purchase it, thinking of all the reasons why I didn’t deserve it, how I haven’t earned it, the money can be better spent elsewhere. I noticed those thoughts and then I added to cart. I am so happy I did. I haven’t found another specimen that looks like this in all of my research. This gorgeous stormy swirls of gold, indigo and blue now sits atop my crystal obelisk display case. It beckons me to see the beauty, to create beauty, within the chaos.
