Little Thoughts.

emptysoulThe other day I was feeling empty and a little small- you know that feeling? When you stare at yourself in the mirror and think about all those things you're not content with about yourself- whether it be physical features or something else. I may be the only one, but I have days where I feel happy and content and full. Then there are days where I feel empty and discontent (and its all self-pity I know).So often when I'm feeling like that... I shop. I look for beauty products that will transform my life (none such exist... no matter what the ad says) and clothes that will make me feel beautiful (which they do for a little bit... until they are no longer new after the first time I wear it) and little decorating trinkets to make my house feel pretty (which for some reason only make my home more cluttered... go figure). In the end I just end up with a lot of stuff, an empty wallet... and nothing I bought made me really feel full and content.Really what makes me feel full and content again is dancing like an idiot to music I like, snuggling with my hubby, figuring a new and cute way to use something already in my closet, having a clean and organized home, giving away things that I don't need anymore and even just laughing. :)So this is my new mantra.Never Shop with an Empty Soul.
