Feldspar Microfracture Cataloging

Today I spent the afternoon cataloguing the microfractures in a feldspar slab, noting how its texture echoes a quiet resilience that keeps on growing. The way the light catches each cleavage reminded me that even the most stubborn minerals record time patiently, and I felt a calm satisfaction in that observation. I kept my notebook open, noting every tiny variance that could shift my model, because precision feels like a steady heartbeat. Outside, a wind‑whipped pine trail seemed to hum a low rhythm that matched the rhythmic clacking of my recorder as I logged data. It’s moments like these that keep me grounded, turning the earth’s quiet stubbornness into a language I can learn. #geology #mineralhunting 🌱
