Charmed Strings of Pearls

Life is blessed with charmed strings of pearls. Each pearl has a one of twenty charms attached to it, and there are different sequences of charms in the strings.

The strings are very long. The pearls actually have positive and negative sides, kind of like magnets. The pearls stick together when they are dry. The strings are shaped like folds and are sometimes found in pairs!

The sequences of charms in the strings helps me to think, run fast, keep warm, and provide code to make more strings! I have to make new strings often because sometimes they break.

Many charms can be made; but some are back in the cafeteria.

When you heat up the strings, they can break and naturally shrink! Sometimes this is the only way to remove them, without chemical surgery.

Charmed strings of pearls are precious. Parents need them to make children. Maybe someday we will learn how to make all the charms. Then, back in the cafeteria, we can have the strings we need to be happy.
