MK - I don't know what to make of it; it's different from the last time I took it off. Makes it feel like I'm giving up the only physical reminder of why I'm DB/DRing. Now, before anyone jumps and say that the DB/DR mentality has to come from within, to you I say you are right. However to me, at least, the ring comes in handy on those tough days when I emotionally and mentally forget. All it takes is for me to glance at it, or to graze it against something.
