I gave you a couple of weeks off from my daily report on the 100 day dress challenge. I’m actually at Day 31 today, but am posting the picture from a couple of days ago. Sporting my ultra thin wool scarf, I feel like a movie star about to jump into her convertible MG sports car, don her designer sunglasses, and whiz around mountain turns without disturbing one strand of my precious locks! In reality, I’m just going to the grocery store on a windy, cold day in Monterey.
Still, that’s the thing about simplicity. We see something and think that if we have it, we will ‘be’ or ‘experience’ what the ‘thing’ represents. In truth, we probably already have something that will do the job if re-purposed, and we can take flights of fancy in our imagination without spending a cent...or further cluttering up our life. Even in my same 100 day dress, I can imagine I’m heading out for an adventure worthy of a Hollywood set, rather than combing the produce aisle for endive lettuce. Actually, it makes the search for lettuce a little more interesting...
