Note to self.

In order to rid yourself of conflict you must accept the beauty of the life you have, not covet someone else's.

In this world of social media I think we all experience moments of life envy- seeing a curated momentary snapshot into the world of an acquaintance or perfect stranger and feeling some kind of lack.  I've done it- occasionally I still do it (mostly looking at work other stylists are doing) and wondering why I'm not on that job, working with that photographer, client etc etc etc. In these moments I realize the detriment of social media (isn't it meant to connect & inspire us?) and the danger of losing touch with my own life and all the beauty that it holds.
