Surrender
I told myself - I am granite. To stand against this raging coastline, I must be grounded and unyielding. I refused to see my layers of limestone.
With time, strains like rivulets of water carved paths within me. Chambers formed, opening for the unknown. I feared such spaces. I felt them as fault lines beneath the surface, so I held myself firm and refused to surrender.
Yet, I felt the roof cave in. It revealed a flowing stream, a waterfall within. All those moments in time come together to create a world of surprising beauty.
I now see life opening anew before me. In the reaching light, vines take root. Streams stretch out their limbs to claim new ground.

This piece has been woven in a meditative flow state and, therefore, brings the viewer into flow as well. As such, it is unique and cannot be reproduced - there is only the one available for sale.
