Unspoken questions

When my mom was diagnosed with cancer, I remember her talking about what a burden it was.

She wasn’t afraid… she wasn’t complaining. She was speaking of how hard it was to talk about the “C” word. The burden of conversation - those questions asked and unasked.

Recently, the Butterfly of Life creator Rita Willaert was interviewed on KARE 11. The interview pointed out that a simple Butterfly pendant can signal a connection, answer an unspoken question and place people at ease.

I wish my mom had survived to see this beautiful jewelry. She would have loved the elegance, and the thought behind it.
