They were sitting
They were sitting on the strawberry swing
Every moment was so precious
People moving all the time
Inside a perfectly straight line
Don't you wanna curve away?
When it's such…
It's such a perfect day
It's such a perfect day
Now the sky could be blue
I don't mind
Without you it's a waste of time
Could be blue,
Could be grey
Without you I’m just miles away
- Coldplay
dedicated to my sister, with love
In addition to new music finds, lately my loves are simple.
I'm trying to simplify my life, get rid of all the stuff, and just find joy in the ordinary.
De-cluttering my life is a freeing experience.
I've cleaned out my whole closet, and lately I think I'm going through a phase where I don't like color.
Neutrals have taken over my wardrobe; tans, blacks, earthy greens, creamy whites, and greys.
I'm okay with this.

Also, something to think about

Along with keeping things simple, I've simplified my beauty routine even more than before.
Some studies on the web claim that people come in contact with about 160 chemicals each day from skin care/cosmetics/cleansers.
I have been taking the "chemical free beauty routine" challenge since 2008, and I've seen a big difference in my skin and hair. However, there is always room for improvement. Some of my so-called "natural" products still sneak synthetic preservatives and fragrances in. I had to be careful and make sure I knew what exactly went into them. The closer to nature, the better your skin will react. Lower pH, natural fragrance, sulfate-free, paraben free, preservative free products are proving to work better than conventional ones.
