I think I’ve mentioned before the camp I went to this summer with my dad and my little brother. It was empowering an thoroughly enjoyable. The theme of the camp kind of revolved around some Native American imagery and how we, as dedicated individuals, could harness the “warrior” within.
I’d like to think that I took a lot away from the experience. And I did. But retaining it is a little different. Sometimes being 3,000 miles from home and living on my own and being tired all the time can serve as an obstacle to harnessing my inner warrior goddess (stick with me).
But my dad doesn’t let me forget. On one of his post-camp business trips to Vancouver (where Native Americans have a strong foothold), he brought back a little something for me. Today, I’m feeling a little nostalgic for home and for a little bit warmer weather. Thus, today’s obsession is the necklace my dad gave me.
It goes well with V-necks (always a plus), but it’s also a simple reminder to remember and follow my dreams. It’s uplifting and empowering. And pretty. Obsessed.
