	   |  questions for people who wear the jade with the red string  
 
			
			1) how long have you worn the jade pendant for?2) did you get it blessed by some buddhist monk or whatever?
 3) do you ever take it off when in the shower or when sleeping ?

			1. Currently wearing a jade in shape of zodiac animal... change pending on each new year, thus wearing this one for about a year.2. I think so as well.
 3. It's on an adjustable string. I take it off during showers.

			If your jade breaks. According to myths and legends, you overcame a very large incident in your life. Regardless if it's spiritual or nature. That's what i hear and have read.
