I also agree with both of reasons - specially jewerly part of it. What the point to have IT if you dont wear IT.

I been very fortunate in my life as I always had chance to wear beads i really loved and enjoy to wear, that give me both protection and blessing.

I only wish I had more skills to string them properly and be able to make nice necklasses I could wear and I hope Jake will come to the rescue and makes something very nice from my beads!
