Journaling helps mine remember overtime

I did when I was a teenager. Then my mother found it, read it, and yelled at me about what I wrote. So I stopped keeping a journal after that.

I started journaling when my son was killed on a motorcycle. I have 9 steno books of those horrible early days of grief. Almost 20 years later, I have never opened them to read my thoughts.

I kept a diary when I was a child, is all. Was embarrassed when I read it years later, so would never keep a journal as an adult.

I wish I did but a good quality emerald is so expensive. Yes, there are "created" emeralds, but unlike diamonds which look great, the created emeralds do not.

To continue my story (this is 3/3), I was very envious when one of my best friends got faux emeralds for her birthday and wore them first. However, I was happy to wear mine anyway. My friends bulled me because I was a "copycat" even tho they all knew I had received mine first. #meangirls!

My parents got me faux emeralds as my first pair of pierced earings and I looked at them in the box until my mom could find the "self-piercing" rings that slowly worked into your ear over a couple of weeks. When I proudly wore my birthstone earings to school my best friends bullied.

My birthstone is Amethyst. I like it. I like the color. But one, I prefer Emeralds. And two, I don't wear jewelry anymore.

No, I have no rubies, and I wept mock tears for my husband's benefit answering this.
