A Picture is Worth a Thousand Words.

"A picture is worth a thousand words" well this one is worth a million and one. Once in a while I look back at old photos on my computer. I stumbled upon my high school graduation ceremony pictures. It's funny you know. A picture is really worth a thousand words. Looking at this picture I can tell you the exact emotions I was feeling. I can tell you who the people in the picture are and what they meant to me, and what the mean to me now. I can tell you what was going on in most of their life's when this picture was taken.

Sometimes I look back and wonder if I would have done anything different if I knew what I know now. If I would have known what the smallest choices I made could impact my future. Would I have changed my decisions? The answer is no. Yes, I would love to time travel once in a while. I would love to go back and hug the people in my life back then and know they soon will be gone. I wish I knew what friendships were not genuine. I would also love to know to never take a friendship, family member, or relationship for granted. Weird I can tell you a million and one things that this photo says.

A Place that Inspires

Ever since I can remember I have been going to Pacific Grove, CA during the spring and summer. In elementary school my mom took me to a bead shop on Cannery Row in Moneterey called "Let it Bead". This is where it all began. They taught me how to make necklaces, bracelets, anklets etc.. Every year following I have stopped in the bead shop. It wasn't in high school that I really got more involved into beading and making jewelry. It's funny how things work... I am not a college graduate working as the Director of Sales and Social Media for Blue Candy Jewelry, where I now have my very own line "Meadow for BCJ". Being back here where kt all started has sparked my imagination knce again. It's something about this place that inspires me. The smells, the color of the sand, the trees, the ocean, and wild life.


I never thought that my hobby as a child could turn into something bigger, but in recent months I have really seen that I can have my own company/brand one day. I WILL have my wn jewelry line and company. You just wait and see.
