Buried Treasure


I once met someone, who lost her mother to cancer when she was young.  Her father loved her mother so much, that when it came time to bury her, he couldn’t remove any of her jewelry. In fact, he buried her with all the jewelry he had ever given her. So my friend never got to inherit what could have been some very special accessories. It’s kind of sad and a waste, but it’s also very very sweet, and if you’re a romantic like me, it’s the stuff of fairytales. It just intrigues me that somewhere buried under the earth is some beautiful jewelry that may never see the light of day again.
