Bead Purse

This evening I received this bead purse as a gift from a lady who has been a real help and encouragement to me over the past while. She bought it in the South of France a few years ago, and told me that since then she had been waiting to meet the right person to give it to. When we met for the first time a couple of weeks ago she said she thought I might be that person and, after chatting a few times since then, this evening she passed it on to me.

It really is a beautiful thing and such an incredibly kind gesture, I will definitely treasure it.
