You bring so many layers of meanings which cause me to pause, reflect, and always, go back and look again for what I missed the first time. Its a beautiful ring and I can see the truth - well yes, it rings true for me as well!

Cristie, the bottom right image stands for the Alpha and Omega ... the beginning and the end [Revelation]. The ring is resting on the right side of my laptop.

I was interested in the inclusion of the keyboard. I see above your interpretation of it. For me is said how the words we type need the "ring of truth".

The ring of truth causes me to stop and think. Its that one flare in a world of dishonesty

There's nothing better than truth ringing, vibrating through your whole being. Nice reminder in jewelry and words.

Simply Delightful! I heard Johnney Cash's "Ring of Fire" on the radio yesterday - which made me think of "The Ring of Power" in Tolkien's "Lord of the Rings "- "the one ring to rule them all" and came today to see and read about "The Ring of Truth" while wearing the ring of enduring love! LOL - Have a blessed weekend. I SSSooooo love your photos!
