Pearls have always been one of my favorite “gems”. Who knew that something so beautiful can come from an irritation … most irritations are annoying or unpleasant. I think it’s God’s way of showing us that sometimes when we deal with the irriirriirritations in our life, we will find something pleasant/beautiful at the end of it all. Thanks for your great review!
