When I was little, I remember visiting one of the Great Lakes and collecting all the Petoskey stones I could. Even when I go to beaches today, the first thing I love to do is collect what I find on the shore or on the ground.
It's interesting that you bring this topic up because I'm in an environmental geology course right now. At first, I thought it would be terribly boring. But as we're getting further into the material, I'm awed by how everything in the earth seems still but is really always moving. Rocks are pretty damn amazing!
Now I'm living in Portland, Oregon, from Roslyn, WA, after leaving Los Angeles, CA in 2010. Searching inside and out for a new paradigm is my major goal in life right now. The patriarchal, racist and classist world that we live in gives me complete and utter indigestion (literally); so I continue on my spiral journey, keeping my eyes open for other worlds and drawing inspiration from those who are also searching.

I do remember! I still do this now! Rocks and crystals are some of my favorite friends!
