Sterling silver Mobius necklace by dvbny
About the Mobius shape:
The geometric form of the bracelet is known as a Mobius strip, after the German mathematician August Ferdinand Mobius (1790-1868). It represents the seeming paradox of a plane without end, or one of infinite length. As such it became accepted as the symbol for infinity, an appropriate and symbolic form for this uplifting quotation.

Saint Francis’s Prayer in its entirety: Lord, make me an instrument of thy PEACE where there is hatred let me sow LOVE where there is injury PARDON where there is error TRUTH where there is discord HARMONY where there is doubt FAITH where there is despair HOPE where there is darkness LIGHT and where there is sorrow JOY
Born in 1181 in Umbria, Francis Bernadone was the son of a rich cloth merchant. In adolescence, Francis became a prisoner of war from one of the constant battles between Italian city-states; in this case neighbouring Perugia. During his internment, Francis underwent a spiritual awakening. His unassuming character, love of nature and criticism of the greed and worldliness of the established Church earned him an enormous following throughout Europe in the 13th century, posing an unprecedented challenge to a decadent clergy and corrupt Papacy. His teachings founded the Franciscan Order by permission of Pope Innocent III in 1209. His Basilica, in his birthplace of Assisi was begun in 1228, and its decoration by the greatest artists of the period, Giotto, Cimabue, and Simone Martini is a testament to the cult of St. Francis. His feast day is celebrated on 4th October, and he remains one of the most revered of the sainthood.
