Aaaaahhhhhh..... bare feet on a carpet! Life is good!
I've noticed some people take extraordinary care of fine things ... and never actually use them. Pride removes them from the experience of living.
So when deciding between what I'm "supposed to" do with something and what I "really ought to" do, to live and live well, I just have a teenager or child use the carpet for awhile, and watch what they do. They don't care! Whatever comes naturally to them is the natural thing, that produces maximum appreciation, love, and LIFE!
It's all about enjoying everything, and rubbing my feet in the carpet, rolling around on it, and using every bit of it up is why I paid money to buy it. That's what money is FOR, to buy more carpets!
Kids know this wisdom without even thinking, so when they spill goop on it, the only response I can possibly have is to smile. Thank you! Thank you for using another fine piece ... of the carpet that is life.
(BTW, I don't have any kids, so I just rent my neighbors' and friends'. :-)
And they learn how to clean up for themselves too, what a great oppurtunity! :wink: )
Yeah I know. I'm weird oh well.
Geez, CodeBorg, I thought you WERE a teenager!
thanks for the reminder, CodeBorg. It's time to do some rolling on the carpet with the dogs again!
:-):-D:-)
I love being a teenager
(esp. at my age!)
Jumping in after reading only part of first page of posts...
(I have to go to work soon), I am here to vote for using things, including carpets. I guess I agree about the slippers vs bare feet business.
On silver, through various life mishaps and unconcern I had accumulated no silver, and I like silver. Another story, I should never have told my husband I like silver jewelry, I should have said I like emeralds and rubies. Anyway, on my own and having a little money about four years ago, I went to a Antiques Weekend thing, and looked at the silver.
I ended up buying plate that was the same price as a bunch of solid silver patterns I didn't like so much. So I have this lovely set with grapes and vines all over the stems or handles. Use the silver every day, what the hell, I use it by myself.
I have all hardwood floors. Want to know why? I can't have carpet because I conduct static electricity very easily. If I walk on carpet in my bare feet, I cringe the next time I touch metal or a light switch because I get a nasty shock. So no carpets for me!
That would be why my hair stands up like that. And you thought it was gel and hours of tweaking, right?
Hehe Heeven, no!
Actually there was another post here last night from
a foot fetish and he got my emoticon reaction.
But I love the way your hair is styled.
Heeven, are you more "electric" than most people? Like getting out of the car produces a shock that makes you say "OUCH!"? I have this problem...I can't figure out why.....
Zzzzzzz - pppffft
