Perfect saying for me
I need to be less hard on myself when things don't go according to my planning so this is the perfect saying for me to wear. It's not failure if things don't go to plan (wind fails), so as long as I am doing what I intended, although different (with oars), my goal can still be reached.

Beautiful
Molly in customer service is absolutely wonderful to deal with. I lost a necklace in transit and they so graciously found me a new one - even though it’s not produced anymore. Their artistry and craft is top notch and I highly recommend them to family and friends.
