My husband, Peter, the name means ‘rock’ – and he is a person who is steadfast, immovable (to the detriment at times!), and my mainstay in my life. Someone who’s mere existence makes me know ‘all will be okay’. He is not going anywhere, without me!

Rocks represents something solid in my existence. Rocks are a building block and if I put one on top of another, could it reach to heaven? The imagination soars with the possibility!

The rock that was rolled against Jesus’s tomb. No matter how heavy the burden, the belief that Jesus died and rose to save me, humbles my mere existence!

Rocks represent hurdles to overcome. Jagged, everest-like monoliths in contrast to, a smooth, sea-washed pebble that had its origins in larger rock edifice. With childish wonder, I accept its simplicity as a building block for life and imagination.

Rocks will exist beyond my lifetime, eroded but beautifying the landscape and one does not exist without seeing a sunrise over that big rock called ‘Uluru” in Central Australia’. Its power and its magical mystery, long known among the Aboriginals living in the area. Another rock in Western Australia, the Whispering Wall, beautiful in its rainbow colours and amazing with its capacity project sound – empheral, a keeper of secrets.

From mere solid existense can come real beauty. It lies in the eyes of the beholder …

Never, never underestimate the power of the rock ………….

In the mining districts of Brazil, a deep dark hole in the ground is all that is between you and fragile stones of green cherished and admired as emeralds. There, deep below the ground, under unimaginable pressure, stuck in a matrix of quartz, an emerald grows. It grows like a pearl, like a ruby or sapphire, hidden there like the spot of yang surrounded by the increasing yin.

Like deep-sea divers, the miners disappear in these holes of darkness. Your heart races and your breath quickens in sympathetic claustrophobia. And they do eventually return to the surface shading their sensitive eyes from the light. Sometimes their hands bring up the secret of the universe.

On the surface, the color green is the magical result of photosynthesis — a process still hidden from duplication by the machinations of science. But, from hundreds and hundreds of feet into solidity, in darkness that has never seen the light of day, out comes a green rock that shines a cappella when faceted to the sun.

These stones, these gemstone rocks are alive. They grew! Like Indra’s Net, they reflect the totality — even while compressed and hidden deep under the tonnage of the overburden. They remind us that there is always light in the most oppressive of dark. One has to dig deep to find it, but it’s there.

These stones, these rocks may disguise themselves as jewelry, simple reflective accessories to vanity. But, we know them as living reflections of forever.

All the best to you,

Like many have already mentioned, change is something I associate with rocks. In fact, I have a stone that is polished which I came across it several months ago and really connected with it because the word “change” was stamped into it. This is one of the rocks that I now keep in my desk. Whenever I see it, I’m reminded that change is neverending and that it is important to be open to the possibilities that open up to us through the process of change.

While I was pondering life/love it occured to me that the sand I was looking at was once a stone, and the stone was once a rock, and that rock was once a boulder, the boulder was part of a mountain and the mountain part of a landscape, the landscape part of a region and the region may once have been part of a country or continent that has since changed. I was reminded of the timelessness of the universe and life and how no one thing exists in any one form forever.

Rocks therefore are a reminder of how things are always changing and evolving, they are a reminder of the eternity of all things and of the chance of always becoming something new – and more than this they will forever remind me of a moment of pure love between a father and son – nothing will ever feel any better than that.

really its just a simple word but can relate to many things. the idol we worship is made of carvings from tthe rock but oour emotions and de4votion infuses a sense of belonging and oneness which makess us feel more secure and happy.

thus rock reminds me of steadiness ,support which os essential at every curve of life.

so everyone just live lif kngsize and rock on!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And the idea of being a novice reminds me of the cycle of life, and nature. Because soil is produced through the withering of rocks, and once the soil is set life starts to grow, as birds go by and poops *lol* they put nutrients in the soil and bacteria starts to grow and plants too, because they eat seeds so they put it back into the soil and a whole ecosystem starts to form! =)
Therefore a rock means evolution/change.
