Ka Pohaku – La Pietra – Lithos or Petra






This one below covered with vines is called the Sybillic Stone, located at Delphi.  Ancient Greeks believed that if you befriended a stone, it became your friend, maybe even a protector.  To name this fallen rock would be like petitioning it to tell its friends above to stay where they are.

"I have enjoyed greatly the second blooming that comes when you finish the life of the emotions and of personal relations; and suddenly find - at the age of fifty, say - that a whole new life has opened before you, filled with things you can think about, study, or read about...It is as if a fresh sap of ideas and thoughts was rising in you. " ~~~ Agatha Christie, An Autobiography, 1977 ~~~ This huaka'i to Europa is driven by the fact that I turned 50 this year. Mahalo to Kalei & Alohalani for being part of it!
