I have been searching for just the right thing for months. I didn’t know exactly what form it would take, but I knew I’d recognize it the moment I saw it. It would be simple, but it would speak volumes. It would be something that I could keep close always.
After a long hunt, many many websites, and more attempts to make all the letters fit, I finally found it. As soon as I saw the picture on her catalog, I recognized it as mine. I was touched by her own story.
It took me awhile, but I finally have my talisman.
