I have kept this object my whole life, I muse as I reach my 80th birthday in 2084. Among all the memories I cherish, there is one that is extra special: the ring my grandmother gave me on my 16th birthday. The silver band, with the 2 small green peridot stones, represents eternal love and wisdom. Every time I see it, I think back to my childhood, filled with its warmth and life lessons. In a world that is constantly changing, this ring remains an anchor, a symbol of memories, love and precious moments.
As I hold the ring, I feel her presence like a gentle embrace, even now, many years later.
My grandmother's ring
