The shell

“Perhaps middle-age is, or should be, a period of shedding shells; the shell of ambition, the shell of material accumulations and possessions, the shell of the ego”

--Anne Morrow Lindbergh

  1. I used to collect shells-I think they're some of the most gorgeous, natural pieces of nature ever. To shed them is to grow-who would of thought you could grow halfway through life?

  2. Shells are some of my favorites also, Oddyoddyo13. And the growing? Well, that's one of the secrets of the heart. One must never stop growing, moving ever closer to the Light. May God bless you and Our Lady protect you.
