Last night I dreamt my house was on fire. It was a slow burn in the basement but we knew we were going to lose the entire house. Smoke was starting to come up the basement stairs as we evaluated what we wanted to save. I helped my kids grab their beloved blankets and stuffed animals. I reassured them the rest was not worth the risk and it was okay to let it burn.
Once we were safely outside I noticed my wedding ring had been replaced by my grandmother's ring on my finger. I left the kids outside and ran back into the burning house to rescue my wedding ring.
Even in my dreams I know letting that burn is not an option.
