      I took a quick look and here are my observations:
      
      Title is way too long, as are capsule subtitles
      You don't have enough capsules
      You should not sign each section
      Your format makes this look like two different hubs
      Don't frame photos
      You need more photos as well as some videos
      You need to add a Poll at the end
      You repeat your key words too often
      You should have a made for Pinterest photo for your first photo, and the photo should be more appropriate to your topic.
      
      I advise you to check out the formatting of hubs that have been written by successful authors here to see how they set their work up.  You write well, but do need to learn how to write for the internet so that you'll have good rankings.

         Thank you for your time and useful information. Much appreciated!
         However, I don’t fully understand what you mean when you mentioned that I should have a made a Pinterest photo for my first photo. Why Pinterest, please? I don’t know how add a Pinterest photos, and why should it be first capsuled prior to the text?
         Thanks ~ Amy

            Pinterest is a site for photography that links back to an article.  So if you join Pinterest and produce a good quality photo with descriptive text on it and place it after your first capsule you can click on the Pinterest logo and transfer it to the site where others will see it and possibly click on it to read your article, thus providing you with more views.  Look at any one of my articles to see examples.  Some people get thousands of views with Pinterest, so it can be well worth your time to create a photo like this.  Of course you'll need to have a photo editing program to do all of this.  BeFunky.com is a good one and is free.

   Probably your title is too long. You are going to attract readers via a Google search so try to think of what they might type into the search field to get to your article.
   
   The article is less than 500 words long, which is too short for HubPages. Recommended is a minimum of 750; longer is better.
   
   I would break up the large blocks of type into smaller text capsules for better visual appeal.
   
   Quote "former Prince Charles once opined" I didn't know he was "former."
   
   I would lose the exclamation marks and the few words in all CAPS.

   Another problem is that the second part of your article is copied from your blog. HubPages wants original work that hasn't already been published somewhere else. In addition, the section contains a number of typos.
