How important is spirituality in your life?

Since I live gratefully everyday, I believe in karma. Being grateful means helping people that needed it. & letting toxic people & their energy do their thing. Usually toxic people get their energy returned pretty fast.

Being grateful for the past decade has given me much in return. By not giving into the toxic people I encounter I live happily. By being happy I spread happiness that’s just as important as money. Actually I think happiness trumps money.

I grew up in a pretty wealthy neighborhood & saw first hand how money didn’t make people happy. I believe that being wealthy doesn’t solve anything but maybe paying for a parking ticket or speeding ticket.

By being grateful I don’t feel the need to buy friends or buy clothes every time I’m in town. Grateful means being thankful for the small things as well as the big things. How are you grateful?

Write about your first crush.

In grade school I had a Huge crush on a neighbor kid. He was an immigrant kid just like me & very kind.

I liked his whole family as they were very kind. They even allowed us to swim in their pool in the Summer.

I moved away & we lost touch but he was a really sweet guy.

What’s the oldest thing you own that you still use daily?

I’ve a very old knitted cardigan I inherited from my grandmother or as I’d call her my Farmor. The pattern is from the very north of Norway. I think it’s over 50 years old. I like to wear it in the Spring/Fall when the temperature is chilly.

Most of what I wear is slow fashion. I’m done keeping up with fast fashion. My t-shirts are over 5 years old if not older. I’m done trying on things that only last 3 months. 

Maybe it’s because I’m older but I no longer find fast fashion something to follow but my own creative style.
