Entry #24
It
is so strange what we do as women to look better for people, usually
men, but sometimes just in general. Beauty is something that so many
women and some men want to reach and want to keep it, some people
even to unsafe levels. Pulling hairs out of their faces, shaving
hairs elsewhere, perfumes and makeup created from some questionable
things. Splashing themselves with over the top odor's, tormenting
their hair with heating and colours, and painting their faces with
makeup that most of us have no idea what it is made of.
Why do
I bring this all up?
Because I love it!
The complete
shift in atmosphere and feelings you deal with when going from
traveling day after day in the wild, or occasionally towns full of
strangers. I suppose I am in a town full of strangers right now, but
it really doesn't feel like it. Being here with Chris and Ganak, in
a town they are both familiar with , people who know and like them,
staying with Christine's aunt... it is very nice, it feel very like
home.
So much like home in fact, that Chris insisted I take
the weight off of my shoulders, let my hair down...so to speak. She
insisted in fact, bringing me to the seamstress in town, setting up
something special...which honestly has me excited as well as worried.
Then we got back to her aunt's house with big promises for
tomorrow.
It feels great to have a day of fun again, simple
day, nice people and so much relaxation. Ganak feels at home here
too, it is great to see him so calm and happy.
Looking forward
to what surprises tomorrow hold for me.
