A diamond in the rough

This Christmas, my parents had me speechless. Hard to do, but they did it!

I opened a small box that entailed a beautiful dainty diamond ring. In a word, stunning!

On the Christmas of each girl's 18th birthday in our family, Mom and Dad gift us with a purity ring. 

I forgot that my parents bought Jordan one and so I expected no such thing. 

When I look at my ring finger I am reminded of my true value. The beauty beyond what eyes can see. 

To be pure of body, mind and soul, is what I fervently desire. 

This girl couldn't be happier with her decision! 

I do. 

I have found my diamond in the rough!
