My silver bracelets have been constantly on my arm since I
was in high school. Thinking back it all began with wearing a Viet Nam POW (Prisoner of War) bracelet, but
my POW never made it home.
Although I
quit wearing that bracelet, when my first job at Disney would not allow them I
began adding other silver bracelets that were “Disney approved” My first brush with, if you want this job, you will do it our way...I felt like such a sell out, but I also had to pay the rent.….Over the
years more were added, always gifts from the people I love, most are still
here, some are not. They are a constant reminder of how much I have been loved
in my life.
The one that looks like a
silver smile, Skip made for me. He would call me “Shmily” (pronounced smile with an
sh beginning) when no one was around, it stood for
See-
How-
Much-
I-
Love-
You.
So many
little stories and memories and gifts of love….I do not want any of them to be
forgotten.
