Crystalized Water – Frozen In Time
Crystallized water—ice! I just can’t help thinking of the animated movie Frozen. It reminds me how ice was a curse, something to fear, and yet, it produced a magical beauty. How often in life have we felt stuck or frozen and yet in the end we learned so much more about ourselves, our beauty?
