Well I need a dollar dollar, a dollar is what I need hey hey
And I said I need a dollar dollar, a dollar is what I need
And if I share with you my story would you share your dollar with me .."
Aloe Blacc, 'I Need A Dollar', 2011
I was given a Pandora bracelet as a present this year, with three charms on it - one was a house, another was a car, and the last one was a money bag. These charms are supposed to represent the story or 'achievements' of this year in my life. Needless to say, I'm starting to feel a little uncomfortable about wearing my materialism so blatantly on my wrist. So I've decided (rather than to stop wearing the bracelet altogether) that I need to start looking at the charms in a different way. God continues to provide and bless me with the things that are shown as charms on that bracelet. If I was to actually find a charm for everything in my life that is attributable to God on that bracelet - husbands, family, Jesus, the Bible, life itself! - I think my arm would snap off from the weight. But, if it is God's will, I'll keep adding these reminder charms to my bracelet.
