Yesterday, while I was looking for something to wear, I discovered a pair of Privos, a pair of brown boots, and a pair of brown shoes all still in the boxes tucked deep in the back of my closet. I can honestly say I have no idea when I bought them or why I bought them. I have two pair of Privos that I love. Did I buy them simply because they are Privos? I have three pair of brown boots - too bad they were not black since that is what I am telling myself I NEED. I also have eight pairs of brown heels. Why did I buy these shoes?
Since the purpose of this journey was well planned, I am amazed that these buys had no purpose or reason attached to them. I simply must have wanted them whenever I bought them. This journey has already connected me to the here and now, the emotions I am feeling, and the difference between necessity and desire. I actually felt guilty and embarrassed as I took the Privos out of the box. I don't need them - at all. The boots are cute, but I have a pair I love. The brown shoes are just another pair of brown shoes. Lesson learned.
