Matasha's Shell

"Matasha's Shell" was a few years evolving. Often when I worked in my hairdressing salon I would take time out to walk along the beach. I always looked at the different shells as I walked through the waves and felt a certain magic not really knowing why. One Valentine's Day while out walking with Gerry, I decided to go for a swim. I felt so refreshed and inspired afterwards that I knew that I was ready to write my story. I stayed in my room for about four hours and Matasha finally came to life. She has a happy disposition and no matter what her circumstances she always manages to make the most of where she is and find a happy outcome or solution, even though she encounters a lot of adverse events she is not expecting. Through the acceptance of her new life she finally gets to go back to her beloved home and friends. Her unexpected encounter with Sharms changes Matasha's destiny forever. Sharms agrees to fly Matasha back to her birth place on his back. Sharms eventually swoops down to a place Matasha felt was calling her home. She scoops the shell from the ocean depths, asking Sharms to place at the highest point. The beautiful light from the shell with its warm luminous glow radiates for many miles, from the ocean depths to the mountain tops and the vast bush land.
