Quote by Angie Cavallari

“Most days Florence would proudly sport a halter top sans a brassiere and briskly march across her yard in crudely trimmed cut-off-jeans —her cheap flip flops flailing off her feet and her sagging breasts bouncing in cadence to her determination to find escape through a good time.”

I’d mastered the art of naughty-lite: two spoonfuls of Diana Ross, a pinch of Cher, a shake of Dolly Parton, all sealed with Walt Disney’s family-friendliness. Before, I had been blurry—confusing, a thing that only some people could understand. Finally, I had snapped into focus, just in time for the whole world to see. The eighties, with all its excess and opulence, had also been marred by darkness: the heaviness of crack cocaine, the AIDS epidemic, the crashes of S&Ls in the markets. There was a yearning for levity in the culture, the very same irreverence and sense of play that had animated me my whole life. A window opened. I stepped through it.”

As we learn to trust the value of our own inner threads, we also start to understand that it’s not just the threads within us that are gold, so too are those within each person on the face of the earth. We also come to know, whether we at first understand it or not, that all our threads are part of the same interconnected story.”

“When we find people who are willing to talk about their own journeys of feeling called, of navigating their messy closets of pain and potential, of discovering their own creative sparks, suddenly we realize that our creative adventure is not a journey for one, but for One. This realization can be incredibly healing, not just for each of us personally, but also for the world.”
