How we dress/smell tells a story. Our imagination may not help the complements or distance we want to attract to ourselves.

“And so it is that most people have no idea how beautiful the world is and how much magnificence is revealed in the tiniest things, in some flower, in a stone, in tree bark, or in a birch leaf. The grown-ups, going about their business and worries, and tormenting themselves with all kinds of details, gradually lose the perspective for these riches that children, when they are attentive and good, soon notice and love with their whole heart. And yet the greatest beauty would be achieved if everyone remained in this regard always like attentive and good children, simple and pious in sensitivities, and if people did not lose the capacity for taking pleasure as intensely in a birch leaf or a peacock’s feather or the wing of a hooded crow as in a mighty mountain or a splendid palace. What is small is not small in itself, just as that which is great is not—great. A great and eternal beauty passes through the whole world, and it is distributed fairly over that which is small and that which is large; for in such important and essential matters, no injustice is to be found on earth.”​
— Rainer Maria Rilke

A different Way of Doing Things - What do I believe about myself if I don’t shop? (What is holding [me] back from NOT shopping?) If I stop shopping, what will happen? I am holding myself back from becoming a non-shopper. I am a Non-Shopper, which means that I am a reader and writer. Instead of shopping, I should be reading. If I read, then I am inspired to explore, but instead of exploring through shopping, I explore MYSELF in context of the reading, by being a writer & responder. It’s much easier than filming a video, or voicing a recording. It’s a start. If anything, by just writing I could create a following of my intermittent long-hand postings on social media. Ok, maybe I’ll take a photo of my writings too! …Please follow me!!! :)
