The Beauty of a Nickle

To some a nickle is nothing or at best five cents, however, one can find a greater value in an object simply in the way it was thoughtfully given.  Yes!  A wonderful and simple surprise that I find value in.  How wonderfully the giving was executed without my knowledge.  Perhaps my child within is easily entertained, but if a child’s heart finds love and beauty in a gesture, so be it.  I am thrilled with a wonderful and beautiful gesture to the point of viewing it as a treasure.  To me this nickle is unlike all others, yet if mixed with all others, there would be no difference.  Hence it has been placed in an antique treasure box of glass and blue velvet to be treasured as I treasure the person who gave it to me. ~ Maggie ~ November 19, 2008 @ 4:56 p.m. EST
