The Trip to Safety
I miss sunscreen, I haven't been able to get any since last year. I decided to wear a long sleeve light shirt and jeans, at least most of my body would be protected from sunburn. I am so pale and I always get sunburn in the summer. My locket is under my shirt, beside Sarah, my daughter, it's all I have. It was given to me from my grandma, and was given to her by her grandma. It looks silver and is shaped like a heart. The locket has a heart carved in the center. There was writing engraved along the border of the locket but I can't read it because it is so old. It always feels cool, even in the hot July weather. It was passed on to me because I was the only one in my family to have a daughter. It is a tradition to pass it on though the females my family. It helps to have it with me. These days we live in, sadness seems to be everywhere.
