3 Unexpected Lessons from a Plain, Silver Wedding Band
it in a safe deposit box. Thinking about that simple piece of jewelry, I realize it taught me three important lessons about marriage…– My parents were crazy young when my father slipped that ring on my mom’s finger in 1954. She was 20. He was 22. They had met on a sunny day in Hyannis, Cape Cod, three months earlier. How can anyone know about love or even yourself at such a tender age? They honeymooned in Florida.
Sometimes my parents would tell us about their wedding day, a small, intimate affair with just family and friends. When I asked Mom why she didn’t have diamonds on her band like a lot of other mothers, she always gave the same answer. “We were just starting out and I wanted to save money. Besides, I love my simple silver band.” She’d hold it up to the light. “It’s not how expensive a ring is, but the love behind it.”– Today I hear young women talk of marriage, mostly focusing on the wedding.
