Ring in the color of her eyes
For her eighteenth birthday, E.'s parents gave her a ring with a stone the color of her eyes. Within a few weeks, however, the stone broke. However, the ring's emotional value remained unchanged, and she continued to wear it. Now that she has turned 40, her friends gave her a ring to wear with it. Jewelry that carries memories and stories is more than just material. In this case, it is a beautiful symbol of the union of the love and attention given then and now.
