Glamor, finery, riches & luxuries


Glamor and all the riches and finery are the luxuries in life that we can't help but desire. I know very well, dolls, as I am just as human and as much as a contributor to this notion as the next. The issue, of course, is getting there. Sadly, we are not all born heiresses into a name alone that could carry us through life without lifting a finger, accept of course to slip on a magnificent, dazzling cocktail ring about it.
Hung up on the unfair ways of society and the obstacles that lie in front of us, we have a tendency to waste time pointing fingers. As harsh as it may sound, society and life realistically owes us nothing. To gain in one's life, one must work for it, earn it. To say the least, we at least owe ourselves that- to do as much as possible so we can later bask in the luxuries of all that we have worked for and earned on our own. There are no silver platters to be served on, just our own pure abilities to put forth.

"Nothing great was ever achieved without enthusiasm" - Ralph Waldo Emerson
 "You must be the change you wish to see in the world" - Mahatma Gandhi 


As fabulous as you all are, I know sincerely that each and every one of you has what it takes to make whatever it is you want happen. Despite that barrier of fear, or unknowing, or maybe even just lack of confidence, you dolls, can all make it possible. If you're not happy with  every aspect of your life, make a change. Do something for yourself and persevere until you can truly feel the fulfillment in every click of your heel on the ground and every step you take. 
It will all pay off, my dears, you will see. 

"Nothing in the world can take the place of persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent. Genius will not; unsuccessful genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent. The slogan; 'press on', has solved and will solve the problems of the human race" 
- Calvin Coolidge

So, dolls, what are you setting out to conquer? ♥
