Like the shells of the ocean
Life is about love and devotion
We are filled with emotion
That emotion taps us into our hearts
Our hearts connect to us the Universe within
And the magic all around

Like the shells of the ocean
We are unique and beautiful
All with a strong light to shine
I am not mine
I AM one
I AM the Universe
So are you

Like the shells of the ocean
We have our cracks
But those cracks make us tough
It may be rough
But life is about growth
Without those cracks growth is hard to come by
Don’t lie
You know in your soul
Those cracks shaped you into the warrior you are today

Like the shells of the ocean
We come in all different shapes and sizes
But we are all connected by love
Like the sun above
When we shine together
We blur out all darkness
Time to unite
Like the shells of the ocean

These shells/rocks are all from my ever-growing collection! I’m so lucky to live near a beach and whenever my family and I go on a walk by the ocean, I always look for these gems! They are all so different yet the same. I think they really symbolize the uniqueness of each of us but at the same time the connection of love between us all. When we come together we can rise above the darkness and make each other better or in the shells’ case, make beautiful shapes!! That’s what this poem I wrote is all about, celebrating our uniqueness and collectively shining our bright lights to illuminate the world!

This is the entirety of my collection! 
A fun circle to celebrate oneness. 
The shell in the middle is the first connected one I’ve found and a heart had to surround it. 
Love is all there truly is, this might be favorite design I made with all the shells/rocks! 
Triangle of strength. 
A close up of my favorites!
