I am always enamored by your photographs and your words describing the yesteryear in Chinatown. Your pictures reach in and conjure up how life is there now.
Shungite is not that hard to get here. I have a small piece of it, but, I just looked and it is readily available here. I wonder why it is not there. It is not overly expensive, but, I guess it is not cheap either. It depends on what you want.
I am glad that you got what you needed and it seems to be doing what you wanted it to do. Isn't that what we all hope for? Much happiness for you and that is so kind of that woman to send you homemade food. That is truly what we are all supposed to do. Help those in need. Just like you always do.
Have a good week ahead!
#MarketFriday began as a way to reach out across the globe and learn about different cultures through their markets, especially local markets and farmers' markets, and eventually branched out and evolved over time from straight shopping to a cultural affair as it highlights how we differ and then again, how much we are alike. We have become a melting pot of culture, but it is still the Rituals, Festivals, food, architecture, and even your language/languages that separate us... Along with the fact that these things are normal for us. There are unwritten rules that rule our social behaviors. I see this as allowing for increased tolerance between cultures and nations, and opportunities to come together on an even playing ground. A strong culture can be beneficial to a country as it promotes unity, especially during a crisis, peaceful debate, and open dialogue. I have learned so much about all of you and it has been an amazing experience. I can only hope that learning about each other can help us work together for a peaceful world.
Thank you for being a part of #MarketFriday
Thanks so much for your kind and encouraging words. You already have a piece of Shungite! That’s wonderful, I couldn’t find a rough stone of Shungite yet. They are so expensive and small on online stores here!
I haven’t tried my Shungite beads in purifying water yet. But it’s very grounding and energising, I couldn’t concentrate well without Shungite these days! 🙀😂
I bet you have quite a collection of stones and crystals!
Have a wonderful day!
Best.
