The prompt for Week 4: "lucky charm"

I used to wear this around my neck all the time.
Inside the tiny silver box I placed a sanskrit prayer:
Lokah samastah sukhino bhavantu,
which means "May all beings everywhere be
happy and free and may the thoughts, words, and 
actions of my own life contribute in some way to that 
happiness and that freedom for everyone."
Unfortunately, I lost this amulet a couple of years 
ago—but the prayer/thought is still out there
 (and I hope whoever found my little charm appreciates it).
