Exploration of Twitter Space!

Yes I reached out through Twitter space to Neil deGrasse Tyson to get his take on using a spiral as a symbol of a Universe

would you agree that a “Universe” can be symbolized as a Spiral? https://t.co/YNEKfvhM0H
I have handmade ONE universe, a SUBTLE universe, and Multi-verse mugs. It’d be cool to get your view!

I’m old yet my heart still fills with wonder as often as possible.

I feel young although when I sense all that I’ve been through, all the situations and experiences as opportunities, i find it all to be amazing. For that and many many things, I am grateful.

This leads me to share that I am excited to be on my road at this time with inspiration and opportunity to create moments in clay, in sculpture and/or on the Potter’s Wheel, meaningful moments of my heritage and ethnicity. I am Native American. I hope to heal ethnic traumas with the resonation and ripples of love.

Stay tuned!

More than 3 concepts hit my cerebellum when I saw this graphic, maybe you hit on these as well.. and maybe more (please feel free to share). Here’s the flow of information:

1. Vivid green bowl.. cute!  And is that a tree branch, in gold inlay? Wow!   And then I read on…
2. Oh History! of a piece of Japan’s culture, and their use of gold on broken pieces.  That’s cool to know, now I can look with updated eyes upon pottery once ‘broken’.
3. Ahh! the beauty is enriched with an updated history or story.  Exactly and so well illustrated! Each of my handmade pottery pieces has a story – and sometimes when pieces don’t come out ‘as expected’ or ‘as hoped’.. it IS with updated eyes and updated heart that I see the pieces with their own unique & expanded beauty – and for this I am grateful, I am humbled, and I rejoin this marvelous mystery existence of life, love & creativity again.      When was the last time you reached this awareness?  Remember back… and consider illustrating the lesson learned, the message conveyed, and the spiritual growth you exercised via a graphic.  What image would you use, what words would you add?  Will you post on your social media too?
