Jewelry... Love-Hate Relationship
So of course it is pretty and makes you feel pretty when you put it on, but my problem is that I can't keep up with it. I have lost or had stolen practically every nice piece I have ever had. So once I find things that I definitely LOVE LOVE LOVE, I just leave them on. For example, I super-glued a pair of earrings into my ears in 2002, and they haven't come out. That way I don't lose them (there are kind of nice, but I more just love the original design and sweet little hoop shape). And the necklace that I haven't taken off since I got it 6 months ago? A simple chain with this pressed blop of metal that has the word "gratitude" engraved in it. That is definitely the key to loving life really...being grateful, whether or not we are wearing that shiny new bling-ditty-bling thing.
Now, I do NOT have the same philosophy with horse gear... The more the better. But I do get it used on eBay to try to minimize the amount of raw materials my habits extract from this earth.
