A long time ago I heard about this Pearls and thought nothing about it. It wasn’t until last fall I learned more about them and in fact got really fascinated by them. The Pearls of Life as they’ve been named in English or the Wreath of Christ if I just translate directly from the Norwegian name. The story behind and the meaning of each pearl you can reach here, and hopefully there will be more at this site in the near future too.
This week I’m really starting my exploration with the wreath. After having it around me for several months and teaching the meaning behind and how to make one, to both of my congregation and a number of people, I know will use some time to get to know it, and me, even better!
*Would you like to join me??* You don’t have to buy the Pearls of Life, you can make your own (that is the funniest and best way if you ask me anyhow..) - and then come with me on a journey through a year from now on (or as long as we keep floating).
Martin Lønnebo, who had the idea for the Pearls of Life, has written a book he calls “*The weave* - the big training book for the soul”. Each week I will write a little from the chapter of the week here on my blog and then we can do the exercises together. He recommend at least once a day. I want to stick with that, for my part at least. And I need help from others to keep on track, because I easily trail off it 
Doing a thing each day is not my big thing. But I hope that I can learn 
*Go over to Martin’s site and take a look.
Make your own wreath and lets do this together!*
*Thanks of the year:*
Week 1: Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday
Week 2: Sunday, Monday and Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday
