I have a gold ring that I always wear on my right ring finger. Lately, alot of people are noticing it and asking me if it's an engagement ring. Since it has a small sparkling stone it.
And as always, i would smile at them and give them that 'jam-look' that means, 'haller! pwede ba?! crush-stage pa rin me!' .hehe
The ring was given to me by kuya Rick. It's the only 'girly' gift I received from him. Most of his gifts were all boyish, to name a few...he gave me nike rubbershoes, baggy jeans and jansport knapsack. (I guess, he thought he had another baby brother or his way of hiding me from the boys!haha)
Well, anyway, he gave it when I was in highschool. He didn't buy it. He got it while walking on the beach in one of his summer retreats. He told me that he saw something sparkling on the sand, a sparkle different from quartz . And when he bent down to get it, it was a ring!=)
And since I was his 'only girl' then... he gave it to me.=)
But I never wore it in highschool. Well, because I liked the boyish gifts back then. I never wore jewelries, not even earrings in highschool.
But when kuya got married, i started wearing it. I guess, it was my way of reminding myself, that kuya would always be there for me, I'll still be her 'only girl'. (Yulk, I'm such a beybi....)
And besides, the ring gives my hand a better look...more girly... Haha. And i'm working on that girly look lately.=)
Yesterday, when I was looking at my ring, a thought came into my mind...
Just like this ring...God noticed my teeny-weeny-sparkle and picked me up from the sand. And who knows, he might give me to someone...who'd love to have a teeny-weeny-sparkle in his life.
