There's always that ...Ain't it the truth?? There's always that disclaimer, that they "can't" do whatever it is. Why not??? It's usually some type of fear, at least in my experience. Fear of the unknown, fear of upsetting the status quo, fear of [fill in the blank]. As I've told my son all his life, you ALWAYS have choices; doing nothing is still a CHOICE, and there's nothing wrong with that as long as you acknowledge that it IS a choice. There are very few situations that have absolutely NO alternatives, so get out there and explore!!!

I feel so bad for anyone who WANTS to do something with their style but really believes they "CAN'T" for whatever reason. <br /><br />I love it that you're blogging and sharing YOUR Story and your journey so maybe MORE people who WANT to experiment will realize there's really NOTHING stopping them! That's one of the reasons I blog - to hopefully help someone along in finding their OWN style that makes them look and FEEL good - and feel like an expression of their TRUE SELF!GothBarbiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02053230806396868217noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3554473301545726020.post-5476094109120741762013-04-12T18:16:48.070-07:002013-04-12T18:16:48.070-07:00Don't tempt me with museums, too, PLEASE!!

But I'll accept the compliment with pleasure! {{{HUGS BACK}}}<br /><br />I also wish we didn't live at opposite ends of the country.
