To Ring or Not to Ring

I wear my wedding ring because I like to.  It looks nice and feels like a "reminder" around my finger.  I tend to think twice when it's on (not that I'm bad when it's off).  So, does a wedding ring mean anything?  Of course it does.  It's a symbol of your vows, commitment, and an icon of trust.  Does it mean all that goes away when it’s off?  Let me ask you this:  Would you feel guilty going to a dance club without your partner?  Do you think it’s ok to keep secrets from your partner?  What about the idea that you could cheat and get away with it?  Well, the answer has nothing to do with whether or not you wear a wedding ring.  It has to do with doing on to others as they do to you; the eye for an eye law.  Every choice you make, ask yourself if you’re comfortable with your partner making that same choice.  A ring won’t make you decide the right choice.  It’s your heart.  If your heart is not in the right place, then your head probably isn’t either.
