The Bracelet

UGH - I am having a dreary, blah day. It is one of those days where you ponder why you continue to get up and carry on.

When I am feeling like this, I like to wear a bracelet that I recently inherited. It is a filigree bracelet with my great grandmother's name engraved along the back - Elmo Williamson. I rub my thumb along her name and imagine this woman that I never met. She is looking down on me, sometimes she shakes her head, but she always wishes the very best things in life for me. At these times, I feel surrounded by love. It gives me a brief moment of peace on these gray days.
