 |   Second blog -- answers to an ocean of prompts |
 "Failure is unimportant. It takes courage to make a fool of yourself." CHARLIE CHAPLIN  Sometimes it takes darkness and the sweet confinement of your aloneness to learn anything or anyone that does not bring you alive is too small for you. David Whyte        This is my supplementary blog in which I will post entries written for prompts. |
| Prompt: Your pockets Write about what you put in your pockets. Do what you find in them sometimes surprise you? ------------ My pockets can contain anything depending on the kind of use I get from any piece of clothing I have on. Those pockets may seem like a small and often overlooked feature on clothing, but their importance cannot be understated. Mine have nothing to do with fashion trends, gender roles, or any economic factors. They are practical to use, period. These pockets enable me to stick anything in them at a moment's notice when I don't have the time or the luxury of opening my purse and storing items in it neatly. So, I just stick in whatever is at hand at the moment, into a pocket. For example, the pockets on or in the jeans and pants I wear to go shopping usually contain grocery lists, receipts, Kleenex tissues, etc. The clothing I have at home again contain Kleenex tissues, a stylus and a pen and note-paper. I never know when I'll need to note something or other. Pockets are important for me. Even for tees and other pieces of clothing that lack pockets, I fashion or sew discreetly on or inside the garment a pocket or two. I wouldn't want to be without a pocket, as for me, it is a practical tool for organization and a symbol of of my independence. In short, as long as I am alive, my pockets will endure. |
