Hi all. I am finally able to create my own thread after waiting sometime. I have been posting in several places. I am very new to the LV world and to this forum. I have wanted to get LV for quite sometime now but I just couldn't justify the steep price. I always had a reason NOT to splurge. I have a good job but with a family and kids, it's always like I'd rather save my money than spend on something so luxurious. I actually feel guilty spending so much money on myself.
A few months ago I had a medical issue that was so nerve wracking. I was being worked up for the Big "C". In a month of constantly going back and forth to the hospital, seeing doctors and having endless blood draws and tests, I came to realize that life is short. In an instant life can turn for the worse. I was in perfectly good health before and all of a sudden I'm faced with uncertainty. It was an eye opener for me. I work so hard to provide for myself and my family but I don't really enjoy the simple things in life. Money can't buy us happiness or good health but we can't take it to after life either...
I am now in the clear, thank God. I am so happy to be back to perfect health. I don't have the Big "C" as my doctors suspected but I'm being watched closely. I now vow to loosen up, not worry too much about the future and splurge a bit for myself from time to time. I don't want to get too crazy though as I know from reading here that LV can be very addicting!
Let me start by my simple collection for now..
I love them and I love reading and learning from all your posts here. Keep them coming!
