I don't think most people realize it, but *almost* every time I preach, I'm wearing something that (for me at least) symbolizes the theme of what I'll be talking about. And I like interesting, meaningful (especially handmade) jewelry. I have a guitar-pick barrette I made for myself, and once in my 20's I made some very dangly earrings out of puzzle pieces. Some guy at my then church said scornfully, "Did you *make* those?" and I was like, YEP.
Joy as resistance, earrings as resistance. Yes!! I cannot pass by a pair of loud earrings calling to me. “I’m getting these,” is always my answer. 💞😇🥳 yes to those duct tape earrings and that sweet girl rocking them
I wore lots of punk bracelets 😂 most homemade, some from hot topic or Spencer’s and I listened to straight edge music & good charlotte (bc of course Jesus would be ok with it because no drugs/alcohol/sex lol). This post actually has me wondering where that girl is right now? Probably the most recent time she made an appearance was when seriously considering getting my septum pierced for my birthday last year. I chickened out.
I LOVE THIS SO FREAKING MUCH 😍😍😍😍😍
