What is your most treasured possession
The StoryTeller 🦋
Although I am a believer not to store my treasures here on Earth, I’m sure that didn’t mean we couldn’t have nice things. One of my most treasured possessions I have is my Blue Topaz Cinderella bracelet. That bracelet is one my favorites for simple sentimental reasons.
Cinderella has always been a character that never really was one of my favorite princess because of her sad story and mistreatment but I felt I related the most to her story
I feel when I was younger I was placed into a similar situation. It’s funny how life often imitates art. I had a “wicked” step mom that would treat me so bad
The pain still haunted my spirit it wasn’t
Until recently my night terrors of the events stopped tormenting me in my sleep
She was so horrible to me
words can’t even describe the pain
she made me feel so invisible
and so unwanted in her presence
But of course like the story of Cinderella
I was of course rescued from that
Mental prison and have continued to live a emotionally healthy thriving life
Zales jewelry store
Has the Disney collection I absolutely adore and can’t afford lol
So my dad would get me the pieces I would hint I wanted
One afternoon I went in to fix my pendant
And while I was waiting
I walked over to to display case to view the new collection
And my eye was caught on this dashing
Bracelet with Cinderella’s carriage
And like a good sales man
He saw the glint in my eye
and he asked if I wanted to try it on
I knew I wasn’t going to buy it so there would be no harm in trying it on
And omg
When I tell you the way the silver and the topaz looked against my chocolate skin
I was in love
I had to have it
So I did what I always did when I wanted big price ticketed items
I texted my dad
A photo of the bracelet
And a month later
I was picking up my new gift
The day I lost my bracelet I was extremely sad
I searched everywhere
Called stores I visited
But my bracelet had vanished
The bracelet
It symbolized so much to me
Surviving such a horrible experience
Despite the hand I was dealt
So I did the unspeakable and purchased the bracelet myself
It will never have the same original connection as the first but it does hold the same emotional weight
It will always serve as my reminder
That dreams do come true
And your current situation isn’t your permanent one
Never lose hope
