I am not a follower of fashion. I have never wondered why
because I know that I like what I like, not just what is currently popular with
the masses. I have never been a sheep.
When you really think about it anything fashionable is
designed to pass away quickly. That is the nature of fashion. One moment it is
the ‘must have’, the next it is the ‘has been’. This fact made me wonder why
people are so obsessed with something that is so transitory.
My interest in people and things is not a fashion trend. I
am in it for the duration.
This means that even when others have lost interest and
moved on to the next big thing, I’ll still be there – sticking to what suits
me, not being sucked into the current fad of the moment. I will retain
friendships that seem unfashionable because a friendship goes beyond fashion. A
friendship is real and durable through changing
fancies or prevailing moods.
I am real and if that means I am seen as unfashionable, then
so be it.
Amen.
