Purity Rings Inspire Honest Lifestyle
As sophomore Danielle Morris gets ready in the morning, she has an extra step that most people may not. She brushes her teeth, ties her shoes and finishes the outfit off with a silver purity ring. “It means basically waiting for the person I love to do something that special with,” Morris said.
