Gorham Suncatcher Peace Dove Ornament: The Destiny of Things, Story 305

This was another story exchanged for a discount.

Here is her story:

I love this for my collection of Gorham Peace Doves on a metal twig tree I will keep displayed all year to remind me of the peace that is needed in my life and the world! Thank you for such great communications. I wish you well in your journey!

Saying Goodbye: What a great way to keep a visual reminder to remain peaceful all day! I wonder how many she has on her metal twig tree.

Since I'm allergic to dust, we can't have a large Christmas tree for the holidays and even though I'm having a difficult time parting with my ornaments, at least this one left peacefully without anxiety issues!

What I Learned:

1. I am such a collector of knick knacks! Too bad they collect so much dust!

2. I am having such a hard time letting go of my Christmas ornaments, yet I have more than enough to decorate a large tree. I have just made the decision to keep the ones from my childhood and the ones that were handmade, which are probably more than enough to decorate a small tree.

3. The upside of being allergic to dust is that we hire a cleaning service to clean the house weekly. Every time I see a knick knack I want to buy, I need to remind myself that the cleaning service is more important for my health than dust bunnies!

Since I'm allergic to most metals in jewelry, I made this when I thought I still wanted to wear jewelry, available here
