This gorgeous Micronesian-style lei was graciously bestowed to my grandmother at her son's funeral.
Hawaiian proverb translation: I will wear your love as a wreath.

- It's not especially novel (however, initially I thought 'how new, how novel'), but I'm taking on a new challenge this year--Project 365. Follow along as I attempt to document and preserve a single moment of our life each day in 2009. I use two different cameras: a Canon Rebel XT with a Canon EF 28-135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS lens with a pop-up flash (commonly known as the "ugly maker")that will I never use(Never.Ever.), and a Canon Powershot SD850 IS ELPH that miraculously works after the boys have solidly dropped it a good half-dozen times. For some reason the posted picture is much sharper if you click on it and view it in large form.
Beautiful photo and beautiful proverb!
ReplyDeleteNow I get it...this was your long journey. I didn't realize this was where you were going. There is something so lovely about the traditional lei and words.
