Arañita was created to represent the little self-love I had—or have; I am currently regaining some, yet I still can't help but think of her as one of the few things that have made me smile through my struggles and pain. She became a sort of bittersweet reminder that, at some point, there was love within me; she is my heart, and now I protect her fiercely. It is like seeing a part of myself I never thought I possessed; she embodies everything good about who I am. I hope you welcome her warmly.
