Diamonds may be a girls best friend, but pearls are more than wisdom for the fashionable girl.  When I was little I lived in Hawaii and I remember my dad taking me to the market, we wandered around until I saw this bucket full of weird flat shaped rocks.  My dad told me they were oysters and inside was a pearl.  I had to have one!  I must have looked for at least five minutes trying to find the best one.  I watched as my oyster was gently being cracked in half and out dropped this perfectly white round pearl.  How did something so beautiful come from something I almost passed off as just dirty and ugly.  Shame on me.  I wish I could have captured that ... read more
