This 18" sterling silver chain necklace features a pewter pendant with an analogy on a watercolor design. In Muddy Road two monks are traveling and one helps a young woman cross a river (contact with women considered unwise and dangerous). They continue traveling until the other monk asks why he did it, to which the first says, "I left the girl there. Are you still carrying her?"

The analogy woman:river::burden:journey represents the carried woman as both a physical and mental burden through the journey of life. What cargo are you still carrying? Perhaps, like the first monk, it's time to let go. The edge of the pendant is stamped in small lettering with "NO DRAMA LLAMA." Three brilliant blue neon apatite gemstones are linked in the sterling silver chain. Sterling silver spring ring clasp.

Cost: $30.00 USD
