Interesting and intriguing, Rall. I do wonder what the story was, but - you are right - sometimes it is better to leave some stories with other family secrets. I wish you had shown us a picture of this bracelet. I will come back later and see if perchance there is one.
Wow, I would love to know the story behind it.......hopefully a lovely romantic one. Smiles. And lovely that you wear it in memory of its former wearer.
Maybe it's enough that it is "a keepsake / of you." And if there are secrets, they might be too small a container for all you want to remember. You're wise to let it be.
From Helen ~~ Color me intrigued, but will respect your privacy. I wonder if huge numbers of us have a bracelet or something representative of trauma ~~~~ a reminder. Wishing you a good day.

ReplyDeleteAh, I see the bracelet now! I wonder who wore it through the years. If only it could talk!
DeleteKeepsakes are always full of stories I guess.
