Eben, I have always admired people who could create things like that with thier hands. Whether it is blown glass, a guy building motorcycles, a really good carpenter etc. I can't do anything like that. I get paid for what I know not what I do and most times it has no tangible result that could be looked at and seen, held or admired. Though I am good at what I "do," I feel jealous of those like you who can do what they do with the hands and the talent God has given you. That vase is quite beautiful your work must be so satisfying to you. Someday when I am old and gray and parked in my wheelchair in front of the tv at the home, I think we will be seeing someone on antiques roadshow going, " do you know what you have here"? It's an original Eben Horton."!
