a scenario

a scenario.....
if you were to have in your artsy little hands one thing...only one...of a certain thing...
a locket, lets say...or a piece of antique lace...or only 1 of what used to be a pair of earrings she only wore on special occasions...or...something such as that...
and there were 5 or 6 different ideas floating around in your head...
which one do i land upon?
do i use the little locket as a tiny frame and paint within the front a tiny little winter scene...or glue a single paper snowflake...with a note inside that says "let it snow"...or "the whisper of winter"...
or do i afix to it a dainty little pressed flower to remind me of summer...when all the colors are gone...and words to remind me of "the color of summer"...
which, as i only have one locket?
do i use the tattered old lace as part of a christmas ornament, to hang upon the tree at a time of year that is, after all, for remembering....
or do i sew it by hand...always by hand...on the pocket of an apron...like the ones she used to wear when i was small...
which, as i only have the one tattered piece?
do i take the earring apart, and use each stone in a place of honor, to each hold its' head up high and be beautiful alone...
or do i keep it as one and make it front and center, the piece that draws the eye toward the heart...
which, as there is only one?
i have such a difficult, sometimes agonizing time making such decisions as this. i am one to think of all the possibilities...all the beautiful things that could be....and more often than not, sadly, i end up doing none of it...i don't want to make the wrong choice, you see....i am only now beginning to realize that if you use it to make something beautiful, it doesn't really matter what it is...you will still enjoy the beauty....there isn't one right choice when all of the choices are good...
