Pearls.

Okay, okay, okay...two blogs in one day, or should I say one hour. I guess that's what happens when you forget your username and password for 2 months and all of a sudden the "blogger bug" bites. So here it goes...

I'm human. I get irritated. Who doesn't? Anyways, sometimes I think to myself, "why is this happening?!" And thanks to oysters, now I know why.  A pearl is produced when the oyster is irritated. Some foreign irritant enters the shell and to protect itself, the oyster will keep covering the irritant with its own substances which eventually produces a pearl!

Sometimes, we experience irritants in our life. Things that make life just a little harder, might make us a shed a tear, and get us on our knees praying. But gracefully, once we get over it, we've miraculously covered the irritant and produced a pearl. 

So just like the oyster, life wouldn't be as wonderful without a beautiful struggle.
