Apart from meeting all of the nice people here!
1. I like the fact that we share a common love for something.
2. I can come here to get refreshed after a hard day. Talking about jewelry with liked-minded people is soothing to me.
3. Related to #2, it's just about the jewels--nothing to argue about, like politics, etc. Just jewels. Period.
4. I don't have to feel guilty about my passion, and wearing expensive stuff. I don't have to worry about anyone criticising the fact I spend money on nice things. I've seen youtube videos of ladies posting their jewelry stash, and some of the comments, "Don't you feel guilty, having all of that superficial stuff, when people are less fortunate than you?" (And no, I don't. I work hard so I can buy my stuff; hubby works hard so he can buy me stuff. I do quite a bit of charitable stuff, as well. Even some of my jewelry is bought to help a charity, such as cat rescue; when I die, I'd like it sold off to benefit charity.)
5. It's an adult form of show and tell for jewelry!!!! So much fun!!!!
6. Everyone is so nice and civilised.
7. The mods are great!
Have a wonderful weekend, everyone!!!!
