Wear Less

This morning when I awoke and before I got dressed I decided to myself to simply just wear less There are times when many of us overdress and others wonder why we are all stuffy and stank with our mood and attitude. It is because on those days you wore worry, anger, insecurity and could it be bitterness, stress, confusion, doubtfulness and uncertainty? Some people say a person has a chip on their shoulder. It’s not a chip, they are just over dressed. Today I say, leave off all those extra clothes and simply just wear less. Stop going to work, to school, to church, to Walmart, to the gas station, to bed, on vacation wearing all those hot, heavy clothing - Rejection, hurt, bitterness, disappointment, frustration... Let it go, take it off and leave it off. Why do you have on the same clothes from yesterday, last week, last month, 3 years ago? Really? Why you still got them same dirty, stanky draws on from yesterday (meaning drama, gossip, worry, stank attitude)? Why didn't you wear less? Shift your focus, refresh and renew your mind by being that bright light in the world. People vibe off your energy. So, for positive vibes, good mind set, great attitude, remember what the Bible says, “Count it ALL joy!” The good, the bad, the ugly, the ups, the downs, the tears, the frowns... yeah, it's all joy. Be mindful of what you allow to enter and linger in your mind. Guard you mind! Your thoughts can affect your mood, your mood can affect your emotions and your emotions can affect your actions. With that being said - Think positive, Speak positive and Be positive! So each day I say, before you get dress Decide in your mind to simply WEAR LESS!

I never put anything on until just before I leave my flat, and undress as soon as I'm home. Skin develops naturally, so when winter comes, I don't need anywhere near the clothing people need who sleep in clothes and then dress all day in clothes. Good health is essential in old age! Aloha! Rico
