Beautifully written, especially the last paragraph resonates deeply with me.

A beautifully poetic piece Trevor, I am always uplifted when I see people taking note and interest in the old ways. I think your writing will inspire those to look deeper and perhaps take up one of these skills. And a note to the makers to have faith that their expertise is indeed a valuable piece of the future. Thank you for inspiring me xx
