Hm.

Watch, the hands move slow.

They move past in absolute certainty.

They slip by with or without attention.

Victorian maiden Press Room : コーディネイトのご紹介
上記画像は「エレガントレーシーローブ(オフホワイト)」「エレガントレーシーホルターネックドレス(オフホワイト)」「エレガントレーシーハット(オフホワイト)」などのコーディネイトです。真っ白なドレスは、爽やかで可憐な印象ですね。広めのツバがエレガントな雰囲気のハットは、日差しも防いでくれ、お勧めです。

This is a bit of a re-hashed version of one of their older designs, but the new color choices are very nice.  I especially love the gray and navy colorways.

I had a response to a YouTube video.

It was about racism and she brought up some very nice, universal points:

Perhaps many people apply their own culture to the culture of another. I personally try very hard not to measure others against my personal standards; environmental upbringing has so much to do with perception concerning culture, tradition, and mannerisms.

I believe the problem with racism lies in practical versus conceptual. Stereotypes generally have a bad connotation, yet, it is merely a symptom of categorical thought processes.

Categorizing and labeling are two methods with which we learn. Stereotypes would naturally come about. In the cases where there are little practical (real world) experiences, people must default to conceptual. This is why ignorance is wholly forgivable.

However, there are times when others can be less relenting. Judgment on its own plays a very strange role in cultural/societal situations. Some believe it is better to judge, others do not. Meanwhile judgment happens no matter what.

This is not necessarily bad, though. It is something humans need to do in order to move on and use the information we are given with our senses. I suppose decision-making happens so quickly because in our early, ancestral days we needed this ability in order to survive.

Nowadays, we live in a world where tools and technology make it much easier to survive. It would make it easier for people to make conscious decisions to think more thoroughly about their thought process…

…but that is asking something of people in accordance to my own standards of methodology. Do I think it would make it easier for people to live and get along? Yes. But that is not everyone’s goal. Some people are not content with leaving something unknown undefined. Some people are raised to believe in two and only two categories — black and white. There is no grey.

Perhaps it is more comfortable for them. In the end, morality, mannerisms, tradition, culture, and society are all subjective.

There is no right or wrong.

————————————-

In the end, I am not making an attempt to agree or disagree with you or anyone. I am merely writing my own thoughts. I like to think the best of people and encourage open communication and understanding between anyone and everyone. Perhaps this is because I, myself, am a minority in the US, and have been emotionally wrought with the discerning attitude toward me. I had to learn that curiosity and stereotypes are human nature.

The unknown could very well be just what makes life worth living.
