As a little girl there were two things that I always admired about my Mother. Her make up and her collection of sparkly jewelry – both of which were pretty much off limits to me … especially her bling! She kept it all very organized in jewelry boxes and instilled a very high sense of value in me for the items. I think she was mostly worried I would break or lose something.
As I grew up I rarely wore jewelry and when I did it was the cheap stuff from Claire’s … and yes, I often lost earrings and such.
When my Father remarried my Step-Mother gave me gold ring with my initial on it. I loved it. It made me feel special and gave me a sense of belonging. I wore it so much I nearly wore the band out! It now resides in my jewelry box along with a few other sentimental pieces from my life.
A few years later my boyfriend gave me a promise ring. It had a teeny little diamond but I didn’t care much about the components as much as the symbolism. Again a ring instilled a sens of belonging and when a prong broke and the diamond was lost I was heart broken!
Eventually (about 6 years later) that boyfriend of mine proposed to me with a big shiny diamond ring. It became a part of me. I would spend hours just staring at it, mesmerized by the sparkle. It truly was my best friend.
Now that I am divorced and happily single one thing I often miss is the ring.
Sure I can glam up with a big sparkly flower or jewel encrusted spider … but there is still something missing. The sense of belonging to something bigger, the natural sparkle of the diamond, the feel of fitted band around my finger.
About a year ago I was at a singles networking event and had the pleasure of meeting Ruta of Divine Diamonds. She has created The Ah Ring for single women, like me, to show off they’re Available and happy!
Now there is no need to wait for a man to “put a ring on it”. The Ah Ring is an empowering symbol of a joyful, single, confident woman in 14k white gold. With eleven full cut diamonds it’s sure to add just the right amount of sparkle my life is lacking. And at the affordable price of $350.00 Divine Diamonds gives us a chance to create a new commitment … to being happily single and proud of it!
