Seeing your polished gorgeous rocks made me emotional, yes I’m a crier as well, but it made me think about how with enough love and care even the most jagged, dull rocks become the most beautiful version of themselves. It’s like us. Our mental health. I struggle with anxiety and depression and I know that with therapy and the support of my lovey I become that beautiful polished agate that just glows in the light. I watch you as a form of relaxation. You are a part of my tumble process so to speak. I missed you greatly. I’m so happy to have you back. Love you and your family. Hug the kiddos for me. ❤

Colleen, I don’t know if you’ll ever read this, but I just wanted to put this out there just in case. I’ve had a really rough couple of years relating to trauma and abuse, and watching your videos always felt like a safe place to me. During the time you were offline, I was in the real depths of the abuse with my now ex partner, and I had literally just started getting out of the situation when I saw that you had started posting again. I remember crying with happiness because a small part of who I had been before everything happened was back, and just being able to watch your videos again has been such a comfort to me and has helped me heal quite a lot. I hope that you know what an amazing person you are, and what joy your presence can bring to others, even from the other side of the world (nz). I am so so happy to see you back online again; thank you for being you ❤️

Maybe you can look up hemp jewelry. You tie the wire around the rocks and you make hemp necklaces and you put beads in the hemp necklace so you think look cool and would match the rock. What I did is I tied the end of one side of the hemp necklace with a giant button that has two holes or four holes but I used one with four holes. Then on the other side you make a giant Loop for the button to go through so you can close it on the back of the necklace. It doesn't fall off. Then somehow you use the wire on top of rocks which I've seen being done cuz I don't know how to do that part but you wrap the wire somehow around the rock and then tie it to the hemp necklace that you made so the rock dangles off the necklace. You can make the necklaces as long or short as you want. I don't know how big of a button you need because I can't tell you how big of a button I have used. Anyways it's pretty cool if you look like on the internet how to use wire and rocks in hemp jewelry with beads and you can figure out how to make different kinds of cool jewelry with that. I'm pretty sure you can use the small rocks for that so it's cool. It won't be heavy on your neck either like bigger rocks.

I don’t think my paremts would appreciate me having a rock tumbler in the house. However, if I ever get the chance to live on my own one day or with my one friend, I would love to try to tumble and collect rocks like you are doing.

So when I was little my Ouma (Gran) was always super into rocks, she had rocks that she had collected over the years with her mom, and when we were little we would always sit on her bed and sort the rocks together, this is a huge core memory for me, because of what rocks have meant in my relationship with her, I am also super into rocks lol. As she's getting older she's slowly been passing all her rocks down to me and I now have them on display in my home office, some of my most prized possessions because they came from her. Seeing you so into rocks just makes me feel like we are part of something together. Love from Sunny South Africa 🇿🇦 ❤️
