Fireplace Screen from Generations to Generations

August 4th, 2009

Some families keep jewelries from one generation to another. They pass it down as a legacy and as sign of the family bond. In my family it is so weird. We have been passing down a fireplace screen. It was my great grandmothers. My grandmother inherited it and so did my mom. My mother is going to give to me soon. Every time I see it I get reminded of how my family has survived the sufferings and the problems that they encounter from a generation to another. And how they have maintained to keep the family intact and how they instill values. The fireplace screen reminds me so much of whom I am. I plan to keep and take care of it so my future daughters may also have it.
