I’m finding it incredible at the timeliness of Becca Lees poetry coming to my attention and speaking the words that my heart is trying to say.<\/p>\n

These rings are such an integral part of me. They represent the binding of two hearts. The constancy and love Tim & I had.<\/p>\n

I have worn my engagement ring for near on 39 years and my wedding ring for coming up 38 years.<\/p>\n

I have continued to wear them because I haven’t been ready to let him go, I’ve worn them to hold connection and also for protection.\u00a0\"image\"<\/p>\n

But yesterday my heart was ready.\u00a0\"image\"<\/p>\n

The years of wear have left their mark. A mark which will fade in time but never the memories they represent.<\/p>\n

I’m not\u00a0ready to release them entirely.<\/p>\n

They are not being relegated to the top drawer.<\/p>\n

I’m not a big jewelry wearer, I wear only what I really love<\/p>\n

And I really love these rings.<\/p>\n

Just as I loved the giver.<\/p>\n

So they are now adorning my right hand. Still connected directly to my heart.<\/p>\n

But not in a way that shouts ‘No Vacancy’!<\/p>\n

\"image\"<\/p>\n

I’m exonerating my heart, laying aside the burdens, making peace with the past.<\/p>\n

Venturing forward to discover & embrace a future that is waiting to greet me with open arms.<\/p>\n
