The engagement ring.

Wondering why I'm wearing this ring? Am I engaged ? Am I married ? Am I separated ? Divorced ? Wouldn't you like to know.  Frankly that's not what this is about regardless of my current status.   And what your thoughts might be on this ring. This is going to be about the  insignificance of the diamond.  the rock.  the thing some women make such a huge fuss over that I never understood.  The fact that some women place their worth in a diamond is just ridiculous to me because as a lady we need to place our worth in Jesus not a diamond. That really has  nothing to say about what and who you really are. 

I find it shallow to place everything on a ring. If the man loves you and cares for you tremendously that shouldn't matter. Whatever he can afford should be fine. The size of the diamond does not ensure the mans love for you. You can have the biggest rock and the most emptiest marriage. And you can have the smallest rock with a healthy marriage. That should be of more importance.  Not the bling bling. They say whoever they are that diamonds are a girls best friend well not this girl. I can careless about a diamond I've always been this way even to the point I use to wonder is something wrong with me ? But nothing is wrong with me I'm just different and that's ok because it sure beats being like everyone else. 

Frankly speaking the ring I originally wanted was half this size. And the friend I showed it to at the time we will call her none of your business. She was astonished at the fact that it was so small and so cheap.  She even liked at me serious as she wants to be and says "girl your worth more than this"  I gave a look like what is that suppose to mean. I then told her that the size and amount doesn't matter to me I care more about the man the marriage and how we are together. How he treats me how we treat each other. His character those things are of more significance to me. Not how much money he's dishing out for a wedding ring. Call me different call me weird call me stupid I don't care. That's the way I am. And that's the way I'm going to be because that's me. I'm not into the materialistic  aspect of things.  

So ladies please take it easy on the whole hoop la on the size of the wedding ring. Let him get what he can afford let his heart and love be bigger than the rock. And please know where your real value and worth lies it's not in the size of a rock but in Christ Jesus. The lover and maker of your soul only in Him are you whole. Know yourself. Love yourself.  Enjoy spending time with God and yourself. Then no matter what cut size ring you have wouldn't determine your worth.  Sharing my thoughts only the best way I know how.
