Last week I asked you to tell me how important your collar is to you and the meaning of it in your relationship. The poll is now closed and the results are posted below. I got several comments and a few emails telling me that my poll was too vague and didn’t cover all the meanings that there could be. This brings me to the point I wanted to make.

Your collar means only whatever you want it to mean. Some said they consider it as the same importance as their wedding ring; but how important is that? A ring or collar or any other piece of jewelry is only going to have the symbolism and importance that you want it to have. Thus, if you consider your collar more important to you than your wedding band, then it is. No one can say otherwise.

The reason the poll was so vague was to try to encourage people to say that none of the thoughts fit them, and I did get one response to that (thank you). I’m appreciative to be told that the poll didn’t fit their definition and that it couldn’t be voted on.

My collar is very important to me, but it’s not on the same scale as a wedding ring. Honestly I think I could be happy never getting remarried and be just as fulfilled in life as if I had. For some reason, marriage is the ultimate surrender and union and I believe it has something to do with the faith I was raised in; even if I do not follow that faith now.

If the poll didn’t fit your definition and meaning of the collar you wear or the collar you wish to wear, what does it mean to you?
