Passions. I know it is a strong word, but it is certainly called for. Our passions set us apart from others, and give us reason to strive.

Everyone has passion for something (or somethings) in their lives. I don’t mean that you love your husband or your dog, which I am sure you do, but the passions that you have discovered through your life.

One of my passions is vintage clothing. Why? Because of the details not often seen, the quality of construction and fabric, and the joy of owning of a piece of the past. It just really intrigues me that so many of the clothes made 30, 40, even 50 years ago are still wearable, and often very “with it.” Studying these clothes gives me a new appreciation and inspiration for the clothing I wear every day.
