Me and Patches, my cat, how we became crystal diggers.
|
My journey to here. I am the 4th child of seven.Born in 51. Yes ,I am middle age and in the best years of my life. My father was a muscian / salesman ,so we moved around alot.I have lived in 8 different states and some of them 3 or 4 different times,Ha, I think I am part Gypsie. Back in the good ole days before computers and cell phones,Living in Arkansas, Children played outside, the 7 of us would ride our bikes, go fishing, pick up drift wood from the river, ride our pony and horse, play soft ball,we had enough for our own team,Ha. Sometimes we would find ourselves on this huge dirt and rock hill where we would fill our pockets with pretty crystals and take them home. Most of my adult life I have worked in high stress jobs.Quality Control for a few years, then I worked the medical field as a Surgical Technician in the operating room. I even once worked on nuclear submariens in Groton Connecticut.In 1998,I was living in North Carolina,a 15 year relationship ended and my mother died all in the same month,Needless to say, I was devestated,and close to a nervous break down. After my Mothers funeral,I moved back to Arkansas to be close to my brothers,and to try and put my life back together. After being here 2 months,I was leaving this hot humid state, I decided to travel around till i found where i wanted to live.I bought a camper for my little toyota pickup, camping supplies and got a kitten to take with me,so I wouldnt be alone. Patches is his name.We decided we would go dig crystals before we left AR,so off we went to Colemans in Jesseville. We met people, got interested in the metaphysical properties of crystals and camped there for 5 weeks. Patches learned how to climb trees,I learned how to deal with my Grief. I realized that while i was digging crystals, I wasnt hurting and thinking about the past. I was seeing these beautiful crystals, focusing on their beauty. Just amazed at the shine, the different crystal formations and the sheer beauty of what comes from the earth and mother nature. We were hooked on digging crystals and having a Job where we could be outside, after camping for 5 weeks we rented an apartment in Mt Ida for a year,dug crystals at the fee pay mines everyday that we could.I would hang out at the local rock shops and help my friends there,when they needed an extra 2 hands. Learning more about crystals, how to dig them,clean them,the Metaphysical Properities and most of all learning more about myself and becoming Happy again. After learning and Digging for 4 years,My friends at the rock shops kept telling me I needed to go to the rock shows and learn. A little hesitant,I loaded my truck and went to Quarzite Arizona to set up and sell my crystals.I then let the crystals take me where ever they wanted to. Most of that time was spent in Yucca Valley California where I made some wonderful friends who were also on a Journey. Some of these ladies were in their 70`s and 80`s. I no longer consider 80 as being old,HA. I was gone for a year So here I am, still in Arkansas, I love it here. I have been digging crystals for 8 years now and have found my place in the sun. Little did i know it would be on a beautiful mountain, the sun on my back enjoying the Wonders of Mother Earth, the Quiet time,playing in the dirt and finding beautiful Crystals to take home. Life is not stressful now. I am a care taker for a millionaire now. All i have to do is keep the yard pretty. I am outside all day, enjoying nature. I have the winter months off and get to go dig crystals when ever i want. I am a caretaker for these Crystals also. If one of them is attracted to you, it will find you,Crystals go where they are suppose to go. The good Lord made these crystals for everyone to see and to enjoy their beauty. If you think you need a certain crystal and you cant afford one. Email me and let me know.
May you follow your Dreams and fulfill your Destiny !! We are all One Love Light and Crystal Blessings Sarahelizabeth and Patches
