“Number Six” Ring of Creativity

Ring of Creativity
According to the Bible, it took 6 days for the world to be created - and it wasn't until Day 6 that man and woman were created. Human beings were God's "grand finale", made in His image, with a gift of creative imagination like His own. Thus, the number 6 became associated with human creativity.
This gold ring consists of 6 plates, each one with a different picture. Every plate is handmade by the reticulation technique.

When life is hard

I read a beautiful story recently.
A man died and went to the next world, where God showed him his life.
It looked like two parallel trails of footsteps in the sand. One set of footprints belonged to the man, the second set belonged to God.
The man could see that through all his life, God was walking next to him. But there were some parts of the journey where one set of footprints disappeared for a while. And he noticed that these lonely footprints coincided with the heaviest, darkest periods of his life.
"Those times when my life became so hard... why, my God, did You choose to leave me then?" he asked.

"You are mistaken," God answered. "When it was very hard for you, I carried you in My arms."
So important to remember it, when life is hard.
