10 second snapshot of my life today. I was standing in a packed meeting when suddenly I wanted to see a testimonial of love. I leaned over and whispered to a friend, asking him to take his left hand out of his pocket. He looked quizzically at me but did as I've requested. I knew he probably didn't understand, but I looked at the gold band glinting on his left ring finger and smiled back at him.

How can I put this? I don't want that band, but I'm glad for those who have it.
