She kept that copper coin for ten years.
Oxidized, mottled, and cracked.
She learned the most exquisite restoration skills, but she still couldn't get started with it.
Because the way it looks now is the original look of her youth.
Until someone said to her:
"Some things don't need to be fixed. They just need to be treated honestly."
That person in her youth taught her what it means to like.
And the truly worthy person lets her know what it means to be firmly chosen.
Intention: I love you and nothing else
