Just One More Coat
Today I had one of those moments that made the hair stand up on my arms. I inherited my father’s jewelry several years ago after my Mom’s passing. For years I have worn his wedding ring, it gives me power and strength. Several years back while staying at a friend’s house overnight, I took my ring and watch off and stuck it in a zipper pouch in my briefcase, before we went out to dinner. When I came home I didn’t unpack it and didn’t think about it, as I don’t wear it often.
The next time I wanted to wear it, it wasn’t in my jewelry box, and I couldn’t recall where I had put it, figuring I would run across it soon. Sometime later I was using the briefcase and found the watch but not the ring. I told my wife about it and we scrubbed the places it could be, I checked some places two or better times, she did the same. I resided that I had lost it and that’s was it. Today while leaving the house on business, I decided to wear my watch and original wedding ring, I opened up my jewelry box, and my eyes focused in on my father’s wedding ring. The hair stood up on my arms and it sent a chill all over my body! My wife and I looked in that box many times, why I saw it today beats me!
