Sentimental things

What’s the oldest things you’re wearing today?

Today’s topic has got me thinking. Today everything I am wearing is a different stages of being old.  I don’t have any new clothes

I am still wearing the clothes that Susanna gave me for my 50th birthday, nearly 6 years ago and the oldest thing I am wearing is my white gold cross ✝️ and necklace that I bought with my Grandmother’s inheritance that I have had for over 20 years and I never take it off.

These things are part of my very DNA and carry a lot of meaning about who I am in this world 🌎 and what I value. Wearing things Susanna gave me makes me feel very loved and attached to many good memories.  What we wear tells a story about ourselves.  Wearing sentimental things makes me who i am, and remembering the feelings attached to these is part of my self-worth and self-esteem. I don’t mind the fact that I don’t have a lot of brand new clothes,  I am wise and don’t constantly need new things to feel good, rather I like the familiar and comfortable feelings of my clothes that are part of good memories.  I am grateful 🙏🏽 for these and will wear them until they are threadbare because of their meaning.
