Dearest my beauties,
Sorry it’s been a while since I’ve written. I’ve been caught up in the wind…busy changing clothes and rearranging my wardrobe of my life.

Certain circumstances can force us to change. Unpredictable weather can bring on unseasonable outfits. Weather, much like life, fluctuates. How do we plan ahead when we don’t know what the day will bring? Is anything really guaranteed? Is the sun going to shine tomorrow? Or will surprise rain storms affect our choices and day-to-day commitments?
The power of timing always amazes me. Things can truly change in a split second. What your life is right now may not be that way in a month or a week or even a day. With time changing so quickly things, can become rearranged. As a true Gemini, the simple fact that things are guaranteed to switch up keeps me going. The excitement of not knowing what will be is what fuels my creativity.
The only constant in this life is change. But what’s even more fascinating than the actual change, is the fact that things always come back around. Life, much like fashion, is a cycle. And we as the players in the game of life and fashion, recycle so much of ourselves: trends, lifestyles, habits, addictions, our weaknesses and our strengths.
I recently read that Sarah Jessica Parker had 41 wardrobe changes for the new Sex and the City 2 movie. That’s remarkable! Personally, I usually have about an average of 3 wardrobe changes on a normal day. Is that abnormal? In any case, my point is that this change can serve as a comfort for us in a world of no guarantees. In an age, where technology can alter our images and we can communicate in a split second nothing is constant but this change. I often hear people say , “I hate change” or “I fear change”. That’s saddening. Life’s changes can be so liberating. Embrace them. The way in which the wind takes us to our next step is how poetry is made. Encourage it!
I observe people and their monotonous routines and it drives me mad!!! I’m seconds away from a panic attack knowing that there is someone out there who eats the same thing every day for lunch. And it gives me anxiety to notice that some people seem as if they are wearing the same thing every day. They’re whole wardrobe consists of duplicates. Whew! I need air!!!
We can choose to live our lives like this; like robots, living lifeless and characterless. Or we can create a life that we want, keep re-inventing ourselves and just keep changing our clothes.
