Pearls in the wild

People often have this vision of pearls as small little gems from the ocean... and they are! BUT!!!

Pearls are more often those precious people who surround us each day, the beautiful, the friendly, the companions, the smiles and the laughter that surrounds them is as precious as any pearl we may find in the seas.

Many dont see that, many see people around them as just other people nothing very special, however they are wrong. Everyone has a beautiful precious pearl within them and some are like a stunning opal, the brilliance and sheer overwhelming colors they project make being near them feel as though the sun shines a bit brighter and no clouds come near.

A smile, a wink, a laugh, a grin, a flash of sparkle from the eyes, a pearl in the flesh will bewitch you, make your heart skip and bring a smile from deep within... nothing compares not even a pearl from the sea.

Ive met many a pearl in my life, but of recent times Ive found myself surrounded by some of the most precious of them, beautiful, bright, shining eyed, some with clear white porcelain skin others with golden hues, short blonde waves, short dark tendrils, long curls and short curls, flowing locks and flashing eyes... pearls of all shapes and sizes.

Surrounded by such beauty how could any ask "how was your day?" surrounded by such as the pearls around me its impossible to not have a wonderful sunshining day, a smile arrives each time one walks by and stays with me until I wander home at the end of the days events.

Yet Im surrounded by many people each day... not just the wonderful pearls I work with but the pearls within the people who I share my day with... over the time we share I seem to find their inner pearls and bring them out to make them shine, what an amazing way to live a life!!

Surrounded by the most precious of gems sparkling, shining, grinning and laughing some with loud laughters that seem to choke them they come burbling so fast from within, others with tinkling giggles that send a shiver up ones spine, all give the feelings likened to a waterfall at days end... one cannot help but feel content when surrounded by such.

Some say they dont have such pearls within their lives, I say they are everywhere, where you live, where you work, where you venture each day, they are there you just have to open up a little smile your own precious pearl and they will return that gift. All would be surprised at where the small precious pearls abide just waiting to be touched by you.

So... open up your mind and allow your perfect pearl to leap out and touch someone... and smile, life is brilliant when you begin to feel your own precious gem free to touch another and see the sparkles of another gem that you have set free!
