Good morning… I want to send out a quote worthy of pondering from Erich Fromm’s book “To Have or To Be?” In which he describes the contrasts between two modes of existence: the “having” mode, that focuses on material possessions and power, and the “being” mode, centering on love…creativity…and the genuine expression of one’s self, a person who has maintained their humanity and intrinsic values ‘despite’ societal pressures towards materialism and alienation. ~ ‘A person who has not been completely alienated, who has remained sensitive and able to feel, who has not lost the sense of dignity, who is not yet ‘for sale’, who can still suffer over the suffering of others, who hasn’t acquired full the ‘having’ mode of existence- briefly, a person who has remained a person and not become a thing- cannot help feeling lonely, powerless, and isolated in present day society. He cannot help doubting himself and his own convictions, if not his sanity. He cannot help suffering, even though he can experience moments of joy and clarity that are absent in the life of his ‘normal contemporaries. Not rarely, he will suffer from anxiety and depression that results from the situation of a sane man living in an insane society.’ #Nostr #quotes #ponder image
These are actual dm’s I get …… As a fashion designer of beautiful fitted sexy chef coats, I get alot of DMs from female chefs asking me if I know how hard things are in the real restaurant world……. Well, I grew up in one, I also went to Culinary school. I am fully aware of everything around me…. I answer by saying ‘ I just like feeling pretty’ … #chefstr #fashiondesigner #girly image
I am not religious, in truth I am quietly wild.…. But for some reason I have always known Jesus Christ, by instinct I suppose, I have never felt judged by him as I have heard others claim they feel…nor have I ever felt alone or abandoned by him especially in moments of deep grief. I realize the gifts of the spirit as spoken of in the scriptures must include faith as I do not struggle with mine. It has always been him as my only source of any relief or comfort for I do not drink to numb things or use mind altering substances. In my darkest moments I cry out to Jesus Christ. I cried out to him when I miscarried my first child…I cried out to him when my son was born 3 months premature and I could not even hold him in my arms for 10 days as he was in a special incubator …I cried out to him when my husband who was only 30 years old was killed in a car accident leaving me and our two little boys behind…I cried out to him when my dear friend disappeared in 2021 the San Diego desert and was found murdered 45 days later… I have known sadness…But Jesus is always here… he wrapped me in a safe blanket and comforted me in a way I cannot comprehend during those moments of pain so deep. I cannot deny his existence nor will I hide my trust and love for him. He is my the first to hear my voice in the morning, and the last as I close my eyes at night. ‘How great thou art’ #jesus #gratitude #nostr #community image
‘Drowning in the idea of love’ ~ by Sandra Harvey Weaving her black seaweed tresses into long braids with bits of broken shells, she steps far out into the woods cove tide pool..."He cannot find me here" she whispers while wiping salt stained tears from her eyes. Looking back at the shoreline she lifts her head up into the darkend sky and beckons the wild turbulent waves to drown her once again...down down down she sinks...down down down...but she does not drown as she shape shifts... 'I am a Selkie' she sighs...I am one with my sisters of the drowned world. The poem is from my upcoming Trizzella by the Sea short stories. *The stunning photography is a collaboration between writer and photographer called ‘Selkie’ shot by international art photographer Alen Wood. She is from Brazil, has lived and traveled all over the world photographing the most beautiful femme fatales. #artist #selkies #seaside #lagunabeach #writer #poetry #nostr
I am so happy to be here on Nostr, although I am not tech minded, I admire the devs here for their exquisite brains…. I have an artistic mind and see things more through a fairytale lens. One of my creative ventures is designing (and hand sewing) beautiful fitted extraordinary chef coats for women in hospitality who are fashion inclined …. #foodstr #chefstr #nostr #creativestr
Summer days… coming home to this white gothic bedroom where I can dream, write, and sew pretty things… #whitegothic #cottagecore #seamstress
