The Ring
There is nothing I would keep from my fiancé Mario. He is the love of my life; if soul mates exist he is without a doubt mine. He holds me to standards that make me push myself to achieve, but accepts me if I fall short, and I him.
I have shared with him everything, told him things I thought I would never tell anyone, except for this one thing.
When he purposed on evening just before Christmas, I had tears streaming down my face. I we would spend our lives together married or not, and I am not even so old fashioned as to believe two people need to be married to spend their lives together or be a family, but still I wanted it – more than anything.

I told my fiancé I loved the way it brought out the color of my ring.
Now I surround myself with the hue. Not only do I think it really did help me during my recovery and help stave off depression, I feel genuinely happier and more motivated than ever.
What if I got a red ring, and then a red cast? I could be red with rage, or blue with sadness. I could be screaming angry at the girl who struck me, or lost in the “why me?” spiral of depression. But I am not.
It was an accident, and the girl may have been an idiot, but she wasn’t malicious and I am certainly able to say I don’t hold any kind of grudge. And all things considered I kept my head up through all of it.
Now I love – love – love my green ring and couldn’t want any other, and could slap myself for any hesitation in feeling this way.
While I love my ring now, and Mario knows how much I love him, I could never tell him that I ever felt any differently. I honestly feel ashamed, and have never told anyone how I felt about it, and hope one day to forget I ever disliked my engagement ring.
Either way, like my ring that I am so grateful to have on my hand, this is the one secret I plan to take to my

    A wobbly kitchen chair falls to the ground and the little girl sitting on it falls with it, scraping her elbow on the ground. Wedding rings worn by newlyweds on their honeymoon bring joy to the couple, besides the fact that the bride's ring is a few sizes too small having been purchased just days before the nuptials because the groom-to-be had cold feet about the marriage. A pink polka dot skirt twirls perfectly as the girl spins proudly and excitedly around waiting for the bus to pick her up for school, but as she walks down the aisle, fingers start to point and her peers laugh as she passes. She unknowingly had her skirt tucked into her underwear until her teacher alerts her of the outfit malfunction.…
