Snow Globe

Have you ever had something in your life that you so badly did not want to screw up?.....but you were so sure that were going to one way or another? That one thing is more important to you than you ever could have dreamed of. It's so precious. It's like a snow globe. I don't know that I've ever owned a snow globe, but I love them and I've always wanted to. They are so beautiful. Little scenes on the inside with water and snowflakes floating around. I love them. I love to watch them for long periods of time just imagining things and such. But have you ever seen a snow globe break? I have. It's tragic. It not only breaks, it shatters. There is no saving it. The glass breaks into tiny pieces, the water spills on the floor, the flakes fall to the ground. The scene looks so forsaken when it isn't surrounded by all that makes it magic. I don't want this to be like that. I don't want to have it and then accidentally drop it. I couldn't fix it after that. It'd be shattered and would never be the same again. I don't think I could bear to see that. So....is it better to own the snow globe and risk dropping it? Or never own it at all?
