August Blooms.

My unwavering resolution is to stop shopping in the month of August.

Do I really need that many dresses / tops / jeans?

Is that 4th pair of white Esprit shorts really necessary?

Something jolted within today.

I've never been materialistic.

Neither have I demanded that men (nor The Man) should shower me with expensive items of fancy labels.

Mich is also an advocate of financial independence (ie. Females should be capable of earning their own income.) and her purchases are largely paid for with dough raked from her sheer hard work.

At the end of the day, these are tangible but inanimate objects.

And so, the Artist shall dab her brush and stroke hues of abstract Happiness.
