Metal seems fixed, immovable. But with the coaxing of heat through annealing it returns to a malleable state. It can be hit over and over and over again, even twisted, and not break.
Resilience determines the success of a person after experiencing difficulty. Can they find inner strength and knowledge that giving up isn’t an option? May you always be resilient.
This pendant has been hammered, twisted, forced into an oblong shape- and come out elegantly, beautifully. It was heated enough through annealing to be relieved from internal stress~ think resilience!
