Remembering our connection to the source of creation, to the Creator. We are a part of an interconnected web of systems in nature- but also socially. In reflecting on the value of our ancestry, we’re the link that connects the history of our families into the future. In our personal relationships we give and receive value and lessons to those we connect with, both short term and long. Living in the technological era, it’s easy- maybe too easy, to look at a screen. As quickly as information passes between our fingertips, it’s the patient rhythm of life we’ll miss. Reflecting on the connections that add to and increase the richness of our lives inspires gratitude. Contemplating the odds of our existence being a part of the orchestra of life inspires appreciation. 

My intention is for the Alitsal collection to serve as a reminder to nurture the bonds and relationships we've formed. It’s good for our health to take a little time to give our full attention to being present and just be.
