Choices...

Hello all Kerry Ryan here……………………..

   Choices………………………..

  Through all our lives we are faced with choices. Some are welcome, others are not; it is in how we make our choices are we defined, from a small innocuous choice to a life changing option, they stitch the quilt which is us.

   Let’s talk today about one of the Life changing ones and that would be getting engaged, can anyone dispute that asking another to spend the rest of their lives with you is not life changing. I would beg to differ. When a person takes it upon themselves to present an engagement ring to that important someone it is one of life's defining moments, making it one important choice. How is this choice arrived at? Well, I’ll give you a timeline that I’ve seen more than once.

  It’ starts usually with the first date or unintended meeting, you hit it off and start to date. The relationship progresses over time to the point that you start to contemplate getting engaged now the choices come fast and furious. First you go kicking around some jewelry store looking at different style and shapes of diamonds, then it gets serious. You’ve made the decision to move forward you are going to buy an engagement ring and ask this person to marry you, to be with you forever. Pretty big one, right?

Rings

  Okay now you move forward to the actual purchase of the ring, you’ve decided on the shape and the style you’ve hunted down the perfect jeweler (Shenoa Diamonds) and together you create your engagement ring. Next, you need the perfect place to pop the question; whether it is that restaurant you had your first date in, or that secluded beach at sunset, the choice is yours.

  Finally, you announce your engagement to the world. Sometimes you ask the Father for permission, others announce in newspapers, while others just advertise by the diamond on their finger the best wishes and the OH MY God!’s are truly a reaction to behold.

  After the dust clears you realize the engagement leads itself to many other choices; the venue, the flowers, the entertainment, who’s going to sit next to Aunt Edna etc. As you can see a first date can lead to many choices and the engagement ring leads to more still, but I’ll choose to speak of those on another day!!!!!!!!

 Enjoy the week, make some great choices!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
