In marriage there are no manners to keep up, and beneath the wildest accusations no real criticism. Each is familiar with that ancient child in the other who may erupt again. We are not ridiculous to ourselves. We are ageless. That is the luxury of the wedding ring. – Enid Bagnold
Remember when I was a young man saddened by the idea of a wedding ring because it kept me from getting into trouble.
Like a noose.
And now I am an old man joyful for the wedding ring because it reminds me don't want to do anything that will get me in trouble.
Like a short leash.
