Geode Discovery
Object Lesson★★★★This rock here, I actually picked this up at a rock shop in Michigan and brought it home. Inside of this ugly, nondescript ball is the most beautiful, crystal, sparkly structures. And again, what does that speak to? To me it just speaks of the hidden things. Sometimes we have to have that brokenness before the beauty is actually seen.
