Think Differently!
There are things to learn in every activity if you do the activity in a way that you wouldn't normally do it. For instance, writing with your right hand wouldn't normally teach you very much but writing with your left hand, after a bit of practice, would yield ambidexterity!
In much the same way, I want this picture of me cooking naked to be about learning and thinking differently. At first I was very uncomfortable with the idea. I did not want to be seen naked in a more public area of the house. Compromise: wear an apron. Good. But what if somebody sees me?! Concentrate on cooking! In the end, this activity was more enjoyable for me because there was an added twist. Like dying your hair blond or like trying a new type of drink. But there is also something to be gained when pushing your limits beyond your comfort zone. Like skydiving, like going to school in a different country, or like taking an art course with sexually explicit material...or just by cooking naked. This is my idea of pushing my limits, and learning from it.
