When I was a little girl, I would go into my Mom's jewelry case and play with her 'stuff'. This ring was always my fantasy go-to. She told me it would be mine when I got older and years ago she gave it to me saying "It's going to go to you anyway, you may as well enjoy it now". I hardly ever wear it, mostly because I'm afraid I'll lose it. But I've also been treating it like the fine china one never uses except for company. Lesson for the day...don't wait until it's too late to appreciate the beauty at your fingertips.
