Thank you fellow bloggers for inspiring me today. My frivolity had fizzled; I have been feeling blah since the death of my dear soul sister. I haven't been posting very often and hadn't looked at your wonderful blogs for a month. Tonight I visited my favorite bloggers and voila! my spirits lifted; I got ideas & feel motivated. You re-ignited my appreciation for the value of fashion & adornment. I had sunk into an old feeling pattern that devalued frivolity, being frivolous had less worth than "serious" stuff; it isn't as respectable as "important" matters; it is too shallow to spend time on when there are so much weightier issues at hand. Your posts reminded of the value of amusement, beauty & ingenuity in life; that fashion/adornment represents much deeper & broader issues of joy, play, self-confidence, self-respect, self-worth and creativity. Life must be balanced to be lived well. A healthy dose of frivolity is just as important as any intellectual or scientific pursuit. Everything in proper measure. Thanks again fellow bloggers!
Oh, Anita, so sorry to hear about the loss of your dear friend. It's great to see you again, I've missed your cheerful posts. You are so right, life is a balance of frivolity and heaviness, so please don't miss out on the frivolity! : >
ReplyDeleteThank you for your sympathy. It is really, very difficult. I feel like part of my universe has been blown away. And time does heal and fun is everywhere to be had. I am having extra body work and a support group through the process. I LOVE your lacy blue Old Navy skirt, especially coupled with the flowered blouse and belt. And of course your radiant smile outshines the wardrobe.
