I'm reminded of a similar ring losing incident. 91/2 years ago, I had three rings I loved and had worn constantly for more than a decade each - the gold & tiger eye one that my dad got me when I was a teen and that I still wear, a Nepalese dragon ring that broke from age and wear a few years ago, and a lovely silver Balinese protective ring with an eye design and a sapphire as the pupil.
Aaron, Dawn, and I were out at the beach in San Diego watching fireworks offshore and I dipped my hans into the waves and the sea took eye ring (which had never been loose before) off of my finger. I was upset and deeply suspicious of the loss of a protective charm like that. Four months later, Becca visited, we fell in love, and my life changed drastically. I was perhaps being protected from change and needed the freedom for risk and difference. Or, this may just be foolish thoughts finding good in a loss. Such is the way of thoughts about that talismans, luck, and omens that haunt both of our lives.
