This article: http://mormonsoprano.com/2010/11/04/ctr-symbol-celebrates-40-years/ - about the history of the CTR symbol and ring quotes from Brigham Young and Elder. L. Tom Perry and ends with the important point: ...it is certainly not a piece of jewelry, or a logo that is singularly important to our religion. Rather, it is the potential the symbol has for reminding and motivating us, beginning at a young age, to Choose the way of Christ, each and every day. Because walking the Right way, is the recipe from God for true peace and happiness.

Interesting that you feel you are the only one dressing modestly in the pool. Most swimming lessons I've been to have the majority of the women wearing one-piece swimsuits or board shorts and tops - hardly any women wear bikinis, mostly, I suspect due to feeling embarrassed about post-baby wobbly bits. Even on the beaches (I live in the sunniest state in my country where bikinis and even topless bathers are all over the place) it's only the 'body-beautifuls' who go on full display. Most women wear board shorts or those kaftan-style tops not out of modesty, but out of insecurity about baring less than perfect bodies. It's rude to ask someone why they choose to wear an item of clothing (like asking a chubby woman why she is wearing a kaftan top on the beach) - and if this ever happens again, you could fire back by asking her why she is wearing a certain colour or style. Her answer will be 'because it's my choice' - you tell her that's the same reason you are wearing what you do. People should just mind their own business!
