Join in our NEW “Searching for Shells” MKAL ~

Searching…
As a child, my favorite beach activity (besides standing in the ocean in awe of the majesty of the waves), was searching for shells. I was always longing to find a perfect shell, but ended up collecting hundreds of fragmented shells that were just as special to me. The search itself rewarded me with many insights, such as how the ocean can take a piece of broken glass and make it into a treasure. How, in looking down too much, we can miss other wonders. How joy and beauty can be found all around us.

This MKAL has a few challenging parts, but is mostly created with soothing undulations of foamy seas, where treasures can be found. I hope you will join me in this journey as we seek the beauty and joy that is ours to find! ~ Cherie
