Attitude is everything. I'd be happy with a ring you handmade from a stray piece of foil if I know you did it with love for me in your heart.

But if you buy a $10,000 ring just so you can say "hey, I'm not cheap...look at the price tag on that thing!"...well, keep it.

Complete surrender should not just come at moments in which one faces overwhelming odds, but in the calm when it seems one is personally in complete control of one's life.
