For those who’ve seen both my hands, y’all know I wear 7 rings…
or did, until I lost one….
which I found today (after like 17 months of it being lost)!
I was so happy what else could I do but tweet about it!
whopeeee I’m not the only happy about it!
Now, the story behind them since some say that I wear too many.
Starting with left hand…
on pinky, I have “Hope” which well need I say more…it’s a reminder to myself.
on ring finger–NOTHING! it’ll stay that way thank you very much (unless of course the right person were to come along at the right time)
on middle finger….once I get money I have an idea of what I want there.
on index finger, I have “Love“…again need I say more…
on my thumb is “Faith“…stating the obvious…but something I live by every day (even when it’s hard and trust me it’s hard during the nonsense that goes on but it’s a constant reminder to myself)
On my right hand…
on my pinky is the one I found today! “Believe” and it has my daughters name and date of birth inscribed on the inside–and after it being gone (lost) for so long and having found it today was a sign of sorts….because I really need to believe
on my right ringer finger is “Strength” which has my sons name and date of birth inscribed on the inside–and again a reminder that I’m strong and refers also to Philippians 4:13, “I can do all things through Him who strengthens me”
hmmmm middle finger…Once I get money to spend, there’ll be a ring there as well
index finger has “Praise” on it….I praise God almost daily (I know I should do it more and more through each day because really there are always things to praise Him for, even when we’re going through all kinds of crap)
and finally my right thumb…is a ring that was my daughters brothers (in easier terms to understand, my ex’s son)…He died in 2001, and this ring hasn’t left my hand since I obtained it after he passed.
Here’s thinking of you, missing you Jason! and I don’t need a ring to remember him, but nonetheless it hasn’t left my thumb.
So, that’s the story behind my rings and why I have seven of them, aiming for 9. If ever you like my story, I would like to tell you about my Diamond Engagement Ring for my next post. You can comment your thoughts bellow!

I love all the reasons you wear your rings. And so very glad you found “BELIEVE”. I just ordered a necklace that symbolizes something very to me as well. Stay awesome, Tara! xo
