To My Surprise, I Found a Brooch

I don’t remember the exact date, so I chose today (the 27th), the day I made a discovery.

I rummaged through a utility closet of household items in my parents’ storage room and unexpectedly found inside it a classic wooden sewing box from a bygone era. I thought I might be able to find a piece of fabric (an experiment) of her embroidery so that there would be at least some kind of remnant, but there is no, and probably will never be any trace of it, except for memory. Surprisingly, I found a brooch there, and thus, another type of art my mother did, beyond poetry and embroidery.

Update (Sep 8, 2026 – 11:44):

I placed it on my laptop to remind me that I have to start working and finish it—That is, photographing, processing, and documenting the work.

Here is the photo:
