ABSTRACT:

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
1. Field of the Invention
The present invention, in general relates to both jewelry and reminders and, more particularly, to a jewelry system that provides a reminder and that, once its message is assimilated, the reminder is displayed in a new way.
Jewelry has typically been worn to flatter, attract attention, or to better express one's interests, hobbies, and passions. For example, if someone is into tennis, they may wear earrings that each include a dangling tennis racket. Clearly, the motive of wearing jewelry to flatter is obvious as is the desire to attract attention. This is well attested to by the size of the diamond or the glistening amount of gold that is employed in the jewelry item.
However, for many people there is a deep and developing desire to learn, to grow, and to heal from past traumas. For those who desire any of these things, the inertia of past habits can be difficult to overcome. If a person wants to learn “acceptance of what is”, for example, yet finds himself or herself often reacting strongly to disturbing news, then such a person may want to have a reminder close at hand that, if spotted, can remind them not to fight against current circumstances, but instead to passively allow events to reveal the facts of the matter, in other words to accept what is.
Any such learning or amending of past habits is, in reality, part of a process, one that is not accomplished overnight. Mastery is not obtained by a mere declaration of intent. It takes time to change, yet change does occur and eventually there comes a time when the person has attained a certain level of mastery, regardless of the subject. The person must then rely not on the opinions of others but on a deep inner knowing that they have in fact attained a new level of awareness or a new way of responding to the world and that this change has now become a part of who they actually are. In short, their nature will have changed to some degree.
The realization that this has happened usually comes as a jolt. A person goes through an event, a crisis; a situation and then some time later they are startled to discover that they responded to that crisis in an entirely new way. After a few more incidents or tests, there comes a time when they realize that they have, in fact, materially changed their nature.
Unfortunately, there is no effective way to celebrate nor is there any accepted ritual to acknowledge this type of an attainment. No diploma is awarded for this type of growth and inner development. There is no outward public display or indication of such attainment and there is no acknowledgment that the “student of life” can see as a reminder of their own diligence and attainment, either. It is elementary human nature to receive acknowledgment for a substantial accomplishment, yet when the accomplishment appertains to personal growth, there is no acknowledgment given for the effort.
It does not matter what other people may think, that is if other people were to rate the level of attainment. Personal growth is an inner, personal matter whereby the person who embarks on a growth path remains ultimately the sole determinant of his or her progress.
Furthermore with regards to jewelry, it must be attractive or at the very least interesting. If a jewelry item is interesting, that is if it attracts attention and comment, it by its very novelty, effectively serves to promote its own acceptance and widening usage.
Also, the amount of area on jewelry is limited. Therefore, any message or reminder must make avail of a limited amount of space. English is generally not regarded as being sufficiently space-efficient for this purpose.
Additionally, it is desirable to find like-minded people to provide emotional support and encouragement as a person works on inner self-transformation. Ideally, a jewelry learning system and method would provide an indication that was discernible primarily to those who are either working on similar personal goals or who are at least aware of them. Accordingly, the wearer of such a article of jewelry would not be burdened by the derogatory comments of skeptics but would instead attract the support of like-minded people. In other words, if the message or reminder is encoded, this provides an additional level of buffering for the wearer.
Accordingly, there exists today a need for a jewelry learning system and method that promotes personal growth and which provides an acknowledgment thereof.
Clearly, a jewelry learning system and method is useful and desirable.
2. Description of Prior Art
Jewelry is, in general, well known. While the structural arrangements of the previously known devices, at first appearance, may have similarities with the present invention, they differ in material respects. These differences, which will be described in more detail hereinafter, are essential for the effective use of the invention and which admit of the advantages that are not available with the prior devices.
