How many of us think Laura Could be a Millionaire on Etsy?!!!

I hope this counts as a form of artwork. Recently, I have started to make some changes in my daily life, including within my home and normal routine. This is one of the changes in my home:

A treasured, ceramic bowl crafted and hand-painted in Singapore (where part of my family currently resides), filled with sand from Seaside Park, NJ (my home), currently serves as a basin for my own homemade runes.

I like to keep my four favorites in the bowl.

Eihwaz: The rune of the mysteries of life and death; movement toward enlightenment. Eihwaz can also be communication between the live and the dead, which is why I chose to keep this specific rune in my bowl; I like to believe I am still in contact with those who have moved on from this world, because I have lost quite a few close friends and family members throughout my life.

Raido:Journey; leading by example. I chose this rune to remind myself to live as if the rest of the world looks up to me, so I know to always set a good example for those around me.

Uruz: Young warriors; persistence. For myself, this specific rune ties synonymous with raido. When it feels difficult to live a life worth following, I look towards uruz for encouragement to move on.

Wunjo: Joy; perfection; realization of your soul's true will. This rune was chosen for all the obvious reasons.
