Ohhh, Tamara!! Thank you so much for this!! I love the many insights and messages it contains. I wanted to highlight pretty much every word but figured I ought to leave a bunch for others. That 'first one to colour in' feels good to the little kid in me; I suspect there might be others who feel the same way!
In particular, I wanted to highlight all of those great questions toward the end. WOW. Wonderful!
What an amazing journey you've had with clothing and in particular, as to how it relates to self-expression! I would love to be able to sew and build my own unique clothes because it's extremely difficult to find clothing that suits how I feel.
What a great gift for yourself - and now for others, too. Not just in terms of the fact that you get to provide them with clothing they love, but that it brings you joy, too, allows you another creative outlet, and also allows them to express themselves in this special way.
Ahhhh, you are so gifted!
And it's great that you've found the middle way here, too. I'm working on getting back there myself.
Thank you so much for this beautiful piece and for choosing HHH as its home. I appreciate you and your wisdom more than I can say! 🙏🏻
