Ideals




So I'm in Paris and yesterday I walked by a Sephora that had this all over the store with a sign saying something like Bonjour Jeunesse! Hello Youth! 

I HATE IT. 

There is no Best before date on women. Or people. The time and money women spend obsessing about skin and looks appalls me. APPALLS ME. 
It's a multi billion dollar industry and we're told it's important all the time. But be strong. 
There are so many other things that are much more interesting. 

Here's a different kind of inspiration: 
Sarah Sheppard. Illustrator. Author.  Genius. And my friend. 

Which of these two images really resonate with you? If grown woman with pacifier, spend some time thinking about the shortness of life.
