The Path to Joy
Joy is fulfilling what we are meant to be. Closing the gap between who we are and who we present to the world is our greatest challenge and the only path to joy. When how we appear is really who we are, joy animates us and lets our soul soar freely - like a butterfly.
Spade The spade represents the idiom "in spades". It's the energy catalyst, the initiator.
Butterfly This butterfly is meant to celebrate the soul and what gives our life meaning. In celebration of our own soul’s search for the light of our life purpose, like the Myth of Psyche in Greek mythology, following her bliss. Aligning and Re-connecting with our Soul; the absolute, undeniable, irrevocable connection with our essence. They can represent the defiant shout that our soul is ours alone to fuel and fire. It also celebrates the souls we cherish and keep close to us: a soul mate, our children, our parents. It is cathartic when grieving the loss of a beloved soul. It honors the birth of a new soul. In friendship, in love, in grief, in joy, for what is a soul but the metamorphosis of the individual from the divine; the beyond, between, and the after of everything this life encompasses. There is an end to life, but not of love.
