Collection: Exile Collection

This collection of merchandise was inspired by this quote made by J. R. R. Tolkien,

“Certainly there was an Eden on this very unhappy earth. We all long for it, and we are constantly glimpsing it: our whole nature at its best and least corrupted, its gentlest and most humane, is still soaked with the sense of exile.”

The first time I read this quote I experienced a vivid sense of connection with our first parents Adam and Eve. They chose to leave Eden and found a way to thrive in exile.

We are no different. Everyday is a choice, to survive or thrive; its up to us.
