This 17 1/2 inch beauty is about me (jNel). I call it Her Castle in the Jungle. This story I find hard to tell, but it is the story of this unique piece. I fell in love for the second and last time. At 29 I find myself, not married and wanting it very much. Like people desire power and money, I desire Love and Family. He is a simple man really and that makes things all the more complicated for me, because I am not so simple. Puzzles make more since to me. He was born and raised in Nigeria in the big city of Lagos, and has been in America for 2 years. His life in Nigeria was complicated which might be why he chose to be so simple. I can trust him with my heart. But a problem surfaces when the sun shines on my castle. Every woman has one; the stories of Cinderella, Titanic and Anastasia. What love should be...The castle that our men can't find in their Jungle. We see our desires as Castles and they see them as Jungles. The blessing of this necklace, which I am learning everyday, like Tarzan and Jane, let the jungles be the castles with adventures and unplanned mysteries, new stories to be told without the control of someone elses story, and beliefs about what Love is. Each two people can love differently, and beautiful. This piece is for the woman who has a good man and is learning to see the castle in her Man and enjoy the adventures of his Jungle.
