Where Dani writes about… just about everything!
In the form of the following image that I will be presenting to you.

I actually like this bracelet because it looks nice.
Even though it’s a single decade rosary.
Even though I am not… really that religious.
In searching for bracelets on Etsy, this happened to come up… and before I saw the cross, I saw the rest of it. I thought it looked really nice! And then I saw the cross. And then I looked at the rest of it again. And then I still thought it looked really nice. It looked like something I’d wear. This could be good because it shows that I don’t see the symbolism in items any more than they should be seen — and, as some might say, any more than they’ve earned on their own merits. However, some of my friends have since found it ironic… and I mean, I can kind of see their points. I don’t want to give the wrong message out to people if they see it on my wrist and then have to explain why I wore it.
Now I’m sitting here wondering if it’s worth it to wear something like this. Me?

If you like it, you like it. Sometimes it’s hard to put a finger on exactly why we like something. Artistic. Colorful. Whatever. I agree with you that we don’t always have to ascribe deep symbolism to everything.
Yay!
However, I’m still not sure if I want to get it, unless there’s a way I can wear it and say… hide the cross in my sleeve or something.
A lot of people around here do know me for being atheist, so for me to suddenly change would disconcert them and make them think I had fallen prey to pressure.
