Nature knows!!!
💫 Pearls of Wisdom 💫
Did you know….An oyster that has not been wounded in any way does not produce pearls?
A pearl is a healed wound.
Pearls are a product of pain, the result of a foreign or unwanted substance entering the oyster, such as a parasite or a grain of sand.
The inside of an oyster shell is a shiny substance called “nacre.”
When a grain of sand enters, the nacre cells go to work and cover the grain of sand with layers and more layers to protect the defenseless body from the oyster. As a result, a beautiful pearl is formed!
The more pearls, the more valuable the oyster is.
We should all start believing that our wounds will be the place where we grow our own pearls! Through adversity, trauma and wounding we evolve spiritually, creating our very own Pearls of Wisdom.
