It is far better for people to hate you for doing the right thing than for people to love you for doing the wrong thing. Never ever forget that.

Diamond.
Did you know, That a lot of things on earth are carbon based? One company The DeBeers company has a monopoly on the diamond industry. They only let out a certain amount every year, and inflate the price. and cause what I would call mass panic in owning one, I'm sure you have seen there commercials. A Diamond is forever?

Nephrite jade. I brought my dad a necklace with some Maori mythology symbol and myself a whalebone amulet and I sort of wish I would have gotten myself Nephrite. I did tell my dad that I am in no hurry but when he exits I want that necklace. He is cool with that.

Amber and Jade are both really cool. I like them aswell, Parts did you know that Amber comes in all kinds of colors? I've seen green amber

And Cassanova Jade is one of my favorites too. you have to be carful buying it though, a lot of treated stuff is on the market.
But I don't think too many people treat nephrite. its the jadeite that gets the bulk of the treatment

Sheer cussedness makes me like my birthstone, the peridot.



When I was growing up that was the only birthstone for August.  Now there is the option of the sardonyx.  Which is brown and I don't like brown.

At some point I may bite the bullet and get a 20+ carat stone of gem quality. Fire Agate really is nice.

My mother has plenty gemstones, as a kid I also had plenty, but I left nearly everything I own when I moved out.

these were favorites, and one such was a "lucky stone". I was a weird kid.

Is that Tiger Eye Zeg? I had a ring with Tiger Eye when I was in high school.
