My Most Prized Possession
To many, my most prized possession may seem completely silly. Most people don’t understand why i hold it so dear to my heart. It is small and is in fear of falling to pieces, but the person who made it is why it is so special. My most prized possession is a rubber bracelet my best friend for me. It is made of small rubber bands all combined to fit around my wrist. The colors dance purple, yellow, purple, yellow- all the way around over and over. I wear it 24 hours a day with the exception of showering. Unfortunately, it’s starting to stretch and groan, and is in fear of snapping right off the plastic clamp that holds the first and last bands in a circle. It holds such a special place because it was not a birthday gift, or for Christmas. My best friend knew I was having a hard week, and made it. It means a lot that she took time out of her busy day to make something so simple. As I stare down at the pieces of rubber, I’m grateful that it’s on my wrist, and no one elses. It means love, encouragement, and a peace inside me because I know I have an amazing best friend, and an amazing prized possession. The colors on the bracelet are my favorite. Purple means love and pride. Yellow is for the sunshine that warms me as I read and drown out the world. Combined, these colors signify me. They are what makes me me. My best friend took this into consideration when she asked my favorite colors a week before. These bracelet may seem insignificant, but to me it means the world.
