When I was a kid, I also cut and polished agates and jaspers, which my dad and I found on beaches in Georgia (country). I don't continue this, but when I see stones and rocks I always look if there is something interesting.
This was my last time when I found agates and jaspers - in Georgia.

What a wonderful story and a beautiful tribute to your memories with your father! It's clear that the passion for stones never dies; the stone your hands touch as a child leaves an impression on your soul that keeps you searching for it among the rocks forever. I’m so glad my post about Agate brought back these beautiful memories from the beaches of Georgia. The craft of cutting and polishing stones is an art that connects us to nature and always keeps our curiosity alive!
😆 This is so true!
Yes, it does. Secondly, we've entered the world of fake things. I don't mind AI and virtual reality, but a real stone, colored by the powers of nature millions of years ago, feels like pure magic.
Your words hit home. AI and technology are fascinating, but in an era where everything has become digital and virtual, natural stones remain an unyielding, honest reality. When you hold a stone that was shaped and colored over millions of years deep within the earth, you are touching history and experiencing a pure, authentic magic that no machine could ever touch.
