18.3.13



















not an easy place to be
right now the little island
with its unsettling winds + saharan dust
and stuck as it is between a rock + a hard place 












































and among all that a birthday
for which i chose (perhaps subconsciously?)
this cocoon ring by iro.

delicate beauty at your hand. Happy birtday dear Xenia. On an uneasy day. Cyprus was on the news all day, I was thinking of you.
A beautiful photo of the sand storm though, love the shades of pink.

thank you all for the good wishes,
you've cheered me up
we're trying our best to hold onto our humour -
especially today when K broke his hand!

Have been following your island's situation on the news and hoping for the best.
Sorry about K's hand...so much to deal with now.

The ring is perfect, like it was made for you!
Happy Birthday, dear one.

Will keep you and your family in my thoughts.
Just as bad things may happen so is the potential for something grand to occur.
