A Walking Advertisement





We are walking advertisements and as such we all have a style, a look or an image we portray.

This includes our lifestyle and the way we wish people to see us. Some take great pride in appearance and as such do not wish to be associated with others who might cause them to be seen in a lesser light.
Others are obsessed with what they drive even to the degree that they do want to be seen in a lower "class" of vehicle.

Then you have the tree huggers a la fashionable vegans, these folk will often find difficulty telling the difference between a hot dog and a real dog even if it was flirting amorously with their leg.
This doesn't allow the carnivors the right to classify all white meat as wannabe veggies and meat on a stick as digestive toothpicks.

You are what you wear, you sell your soul to the god of Levi or Soviet, you dress up or down to tell the world, see me, love me or beware of me. A famous stripper whose stage name escapes me once said, "a monkey draped in silk and diamonds remains a monkey still".
That watch, those shoes, the fragrance makes you feel special, boosts your self esteem and allows you to live a little beyond yourself.

I have a selection of pipes, a brass Zippo and a stunning Humidor. I also have a plastic watch, old underwear and one pot and pan. I live somewhere between the naked Dad and the single chef, or something like that.
My point is this. It really doesn't matter who you are, who you want to be or what you used to be, just be happy with yourself.

Love yourself, embrace the you that you are and it will permeate to those around you.

Nite All
