On Time And Wear

New wedding bands are beautiful. They shine. They’re perfect. Spoiler alert, they are going to scratch. They’re going to have dings. The edges are going to mellow. That’s a good thing! Just as your relationship is inevitably going to go through transformations, so is your wedding band. Lots of adventures bring lots of changes. Each little bump in the road adds to its patina. The ring above belongs to Corinne’s mom. It shows every bit of its 50+ years. The ring is worn and comfortable and a beautiful record of every meal, every late night, every time they walked down the street together holding hands. If you are very very lucky, your ring is going to show every moment of your long and happy life. Embrace that.
