Happiness in Your Eyes
What is happiness in your eyes?
Everyone wants to find happiness. But what is happiness? Answers are always quite different. Some people said a luxurious car. Some people said a villa. Some people said money. Some people even said owning a beautiful woman is happiness.
But why do many people still feel unhappy when they own luxurious cars, villas, mountains of money and beautiful women? Why do we often see sad faces with brand new jewelry, brand name shoes, and a brand new car? They own everything others are longing for. We often see couples selling snacks that are full of smiles and satisfaction.
Happiness is not a kind a product which you can buy easily from market. Happiness can’t be seen and touched. So nobody can draw its picture. What is happiness? Happiness is just a kind of feeling, which everybody want to have. Sometimes happiness is easy to get. Children will get happiness by cartoons and beautiful clothes. Old people will feel happy just because their children call them for caring. People falling in love feel happy just for staying more moment with their beloved.
Happiness is a procedure. In the procedure, people struggle for their career and wealth. Maybe they will fail, but they still feel happy because they enjoy the procedure to struggle for success. Scientists feel happy even their experiments failed because they enjoy the procedure for research.
Happiness is an attitude. We may do everything the same with the things we do yesterday. Some will feel bored, while some feel interesting because they will find new things. To the same thing, some people treat it positively, while some negatively.
Where is happiness? Happiness is in our heart.
Bridal Jewelry: Common Mistakes
Jewelry is a momentous component to most weddings. In fact, many couples introduce the idea of getting married with an engagement ring and they seal the deal with a set of wedding bands. Bridal jewelry is an ancient practice that is said to have originated with the Romans. Today, many couples take extra care when choosing the appropriate wedding jewelry. Unfortunately, there are some mistakes that brides have made in the past as it relates to choosing the perfect jewelry for their wedding day. The following is a list of mistakes that brides should be careful to avoid when choosing bridal jewelry.
The Engagement Ring
Shopping for the perfect engagement ring can be very exciting, yet thought provoking. For most couples, an engagement ring is intended to serve as a permanent fixture in their relationship. With this said, it is important for the couple not to select a diamond engagement ring that is too trendy. Selecting bridal jewelry that is too up-to-the-minute may cause the bride to grow out of her ring in a couple of years. The best engagement ring is one that is timeless.
Bridal Accessories
The average bride will choose a bridal jewelry set to wear with her wedding gown. However, it is important that the bride refrain from choosing bridal jewelry before she has selected her wedding dress. Hence, bridal accessories are supposed to enhance the dress–not the other way around. This important factor follows the age-old question–What comes first, the chicken or the egg?
Something Borrowed
Inheriting a family treasure from mother, grandmother, or even great-grandmother is a kind gesture–especially when it can be worn on the bride’s wedding day. Although wearing a family heirloom for bridal jewelry is sentimental, it may not be a practical choice. As mentioned earlier, the purpose of accessories is to enhance the overall appearance of the wedding dress. If grandmother’s antique pearls conflicts with the style of the wedding gown, it may be best not to wear the heirloom. In this case, it may be a good idea to agree to wear the borrowed jewelry to the engagement party, rehearsal dinner, or on the honeymoon.
Something Old
This could easily apply to something that you received from your mother, grandmother, etc.. but it can also be something that brings back pleasant early memories. How long did you know your future husband? Maybe your bridal jewelry is a reflection of the first present he gave you (visit to a fabulous beach). How about beach themed jewelry for you and your bridesmaids.
Something New
Even if you choose to make an heirloom as the center of your bridal jewelry, complement it with some of the elegance of modern Swarovski crystal accessories or the latest designs in pearls.
Bridal jewelry is a significant element in preparing for marriage. As a symbol of everlasting love and an enhancement for the bride’s wedding attire, it’s important to avoid common mistakes that many brides have made in the past. When it comes to selecting the perfect bridal jewelry, the bride should choose wisely!
