Red Velvet Ropes














What makes us stop at the sight of red velvet ropes? What do we tell ourselves, that prevents us from just "crossing the red line?" Why do we feel we don't belong on the "other side?"

For a post astonishing in its' brilliance regarding this very thing, please click here.

Thank you to scrapsoflife.com, a fantastic blog I discovered today, for pointing me to ittybiz.com. Or, maybe no thank you--since that's where my morning went....

After reading this post by Chris Anthony, your perception of who you are in this world, will be changed--in a positive and challenging way.

I hope you do yourself a favor this morning, and click over here.

Love you all.

  6. Perhaps I should get some professional velvet rope holders to follow me around. Although it would probably make me feel like I was consistently on the wrong side of it.

    Perception.

  11. Made me think. My mother has never been the type of person to stand behind a rope. She always asks for what she wants. I tend to stand in line.

  19. I mostly encounter yellow lines. When they referenced parking lots I had to laugh because folks around here mostly ignore the lines in favor of a sort of free form style.

    Maybe if they invested in some red paint....
