The prices for gold have been spiraling on a daily basis. The intelligent and well to do have cultivated a hobby: buying gold for future use. And the men too have been granted their own ornament section.

True that even in the volatile days, the men would lose to women in the jewelry battle, as is the case in other fields. But there is a piece of gold that looks great on all genders: Gold chain. The mens gold chains are not a rare sight, and many men think of them as lucky charms and intelligence providers.

The shops in the locality are no stranger to this hidden wish, and fashion out trendy gold chains for the males in varied designs. The men are held captive without much fuss. A new gold, known as white gold, has started to replace gold’s popularity in this respect. The white gold chain may not have the gloss of the original yellow, but they look different.

The dealers, offline or online, take care to lure the buyers with some meaningful discounts and accredited purity. The metal’s resale value has always been a strong point for investment in gold. GoldenMine is currently a top brigade online website dealer of such chains. The prospects are huge.

A survey about shopping at a certain mall was conducted, and at that time, I myself was at that particular mall doing, well, some shopping. I took some time to sit and, kindly enough, answer the survey sheet given to me by the, uh, what do they call them? Surveying employees? Anyway, I sat at a café beside a maternity shop where they sold all types of baby clothing, crib mattresses and more baby-related merchandise. It was near the indoor fountain, my attempt to have a relaxing ambiance, but, alas, it was to no avail. The mall was far too noisy and the echoes reverberating from the badly structured walls were too loud and clashy to possibly get a relaxing ambiance. I shrugged it off and decided to get on with the task ahead.

Question number 1: What do you usually buy from our mall?

+ Groceries

Question number 2: Where do you usually find those items of which you have mentioned?

+ The mall’s supermarket

Question number 3: Which restaurants do you prefer most in the mall?

+ None. I prefer home-made cooking.

Question number 4: Which places in the mall are best for leisure and relaxation?

+ None. All of the walls in the whole mall are badly structured that the sounds crash into them too violently so they clash into one another and it sounds absolutely unpleasant. I do not like your mall. I absolutely don’t. It’s the nearest to my house so I am compelled to buy my groceries here. Oh, and I hate your fountain. It’s revolting.

Birth and death, a fact that none of us can change, well at least for now, a vicious cycle involving different phases, each is a unique experience yet similar in some ways. It is called life; something that all of us are experiencing right now, some might find it exciting while others may seem a bit bored with theirs, and keeping a constant search of something that makes them livelier than the usual. What does it really takes to be alive? Is it the clothes we wear? The man or woman we wake up with? The food we eat? The shows we watch? Well that all depends, it could be all of those or it could be none of those things mentioned. But to really be alive is to be a healthy being, having beauty in and out, meaning you don’t only look good but also feel good. It is not all based on your physical aspect but also our physiological health is important. Our body reacts on what we feel; we might be eating all the healthy food that the market offers, but all of this is not enough, having a sound soul brings far more benefits to our body than anything else. It slows the aging process by freeing the stress that we accumulate in our daily lives. That is why laughter is said to be the best medicine.
