There is a ring that I wear on my right, ring finger and hardley ever take off. You see, it was a dear gift from the two people in my life who have brought me to where I stand today... and without whom I would be flailing helplessly in a turbulent, vast, open sea.

This ring has recently lost the small stone it once displayed with simple elegence and no longer sparkles. But it's ok... because I still have those two people wonderful people in my life and that's really all I care about.

and a little loss of glitter doesn't stop me from wearing my beautiful Christmas gift with pride.
