My love for jewelry in inherited from my aunt.my mother on other hand has never shown any interest in it.I do not recall her visiting any jeweler all these years to buy any trinket for herself.
In the beginning years of my life I was like her, one odd gold bangle and two- three pars of silver earrings were enough.In fact in all my teen life i did not buy any thing.One because of lack of interest and other because of allergy to metals other than gold.
It was only in my late twenties that the genetic heritage started growing.I started exploring all that could be bought in gold and fitted my small pocket.It was an interesting journey but also gold became un-affordable soon.
Then I turned my attention to silver and I realised that silver jewellery had touched new heights while I was busy running after gold.
So then started my love for silver I bought lot of variety as it was considerably cheaper than gold.But as they say good time does not last for long.One day I woke to the fact that even silver was beyond especially if you want to buy something fancy.
So I dropped to new depths that is artificial jewelry.
Mind you as in case of silver, by the time I dropped to the level of artificial jewelry it had gained new height.
Voila! artificial had reached the price I had started with gold.
So the lesson here is
Very true...
