The platform for story telling a beading circle creates is one that has enabled me to catch up with friends, learn something new, and revisit knowledge with a renewed perspective.
Often we are too busy to keep in touch as closely as we would like, and I am grateful for how many of continue to embrace this traditional practice.
I hope one day to meet you at the beading table and look forward hearing your story.
And maybe we will bead.
