My thoughts behind my grenade heart jar were that I have a heart that is hard to get into, but once you do, it is filled with love. For this project, I took a chunk of 80% dried clay and carved it like you would carve plaster. This was one of my favorite projects because it was challenging but the end result was a reward. There are many things in life that you must work for. I have learned though that not everything you want you can have. Many things in life hurt but you must stay strong and focused on the goals you have set for yourself. For me, my heart is in one place but my head is in another. They must communicate for me to be successful and continue on my life path. Sometimes you love and you loose that person. Dr. Seuss once said, "Don't cry because it's over, smile because it happened."
