The Story of a Compass
A Treasured Compass from Father ~ to daughter ~ to niece
A Story
This is an enchanting story about a compass pendant.
A Compass from the Past
Last year I made a custom made compass pendant for a lady in Australia. It was especially made for her to replace the one that her late father used to wear, but which had been lost for over 15 years.
Delighted to receive it, she admitted to shedding a tear of joy when she opened the velvet bag. The compass was inextricably bound with stories of her past and memories of her father.
A Compass for the Future
A while later, the lady’s niece saw the compass and instantly fell in love with it. So, the kind and big-hearted lady gave her precious compass to her niece in the knowledge that she’d treasure it.
Do you know what happened next?
Well, I’ve just learned that the niece gave the compass pendant back to her aunt for her Birthday in April! Then, next May, the lady will give it back to her niece for her Birthday! It has become a shared treasure ~ two compasses in one.
The story of this Ship’s Wheel Compass starts in the past. With each passing year, tales are recounted and new chapters added.
A shared treasure that will be cherished into the future.
