Fragility

I broke the mug I carefully carried all the way home from California’s ocean side to my dusty state. With my extra loving care, it survived a long trip, but it was never intended to survive any further than that. If I could have kept it, I would have used it every single day. It would have been my favorite mug. It was a special souvenir to me. I guess I can keep the damaged mug as a reminder of fragility. I should just throw it away…that’s what most would do. I just know when things are one of a kind in my hand. Unique. Special. Irreplaceable. Unforgettable.

••The special mug I brought back from the 2014 ARMA International Conference. I thought this mug was a great reminder of the conference theme...Oceans of Opportunities.••
