Ok, the ring off experiment didn't last long. I've only had it off for a few hours and I've been miserable.

I HATE NOT HAVING IT ON! In fact, I was so embarassed of my bare finger and what message it may send that I spent almost the entire class period teaching with my left hand in my pocket.

I wasn't sure how I would feel, but I had to try and I'm glad I did. I am proud to be married to my wife. I am proud to tell the world I'm married and I am proud to show my wife my committment by keeping the ring on at all times.

As soon as I get home, the ring is back on for good. It is a part of me. It completes me. It gives me confidence.

I can have it on and be proud of my commitment.

I can't wait to get home and feel complete again. I wish now I would have put it in my pocket for the day.
