Today i realised that all those distinctive things about ourselves, we dont like to share,
making as cringe in embarrassment that others might ridicule us or deem us some sort of outcast, a land terrestrial of another level
are the very things that make us VALUABLE.
So maybe you know that already and i'm saying nothing new. Yup! But thats ok. I'll just say it again. The perfect illustration:
You see if "Bling" (the real deal) was so common in the market, being sold at every stall in Camden Town for just a couple of quid
then why would anyone make a fuss over it?? Both you and I, your grandma, my grandma, Uncle Steve, Aunty Ruth, Mathilda and Jack, the couple next door, would all be wearing a bit o' Bling.
Seriously thinking about it, that would give no reason for the Queen or Madonna, Puffy or Beckham to wear it with pride on the red carpet and flash it for the press and one and all to see.
If you have any interest in economics- too much money in circulation is not good for the country's health or wealthy- it devalues(weakens) the currency
.
The idea is that when you have something rare, something unique to you or to so few others.........well that is your chance, don't bury it under the carpet in the hope it is never discovered (coz someone will anyway)
Let it be your bling bling .
