Little girl, I don’t have it anymore.
I couldn’t bear to look at it.
It had become a symbol of broken vows.
I’m so sorry and sad. I pawned it away.
My old wedding ring is gone.

but darling commentary little girls, broken wows are his, why sorry this? and pawn shop is revolving door decision, or not? Did not deep sea it! Left her open door...same one when throw her out... here is lies no sadness or remorse, but empty space of empty words, little girls
It may be gone from you, but it was an answer to a prayer for someone. May that ring bring them a new beginning, just as you offered it up as your new beginning. 💚 Amen ““Do not remember the former things, Nor consider the things of old. Behold, I will do a new thing, Now it shall spring forth; Shall you not know it? I will even make a road in the wilderness And rivers in the desert.” Isaiah 43:18-19 NKJV 😇❤️
Regret is the most expensive thing in the world.
Sad.
