I make hangtags for each and every product I ship out, which is a little troublesome sometimes because some of my work don't have a loop or something to hang the hangtag on... ^_^. The hangtags are made from brown parcel paper which are cut with decorative scissors, sewn in three sides to make a pocket. I put a namecard inside each hangtag, and then punch a hole at the end. Then comes another Pretty Cloth moo.com sticker and a handwritten message on each. The idea is to rip the hole of each hangtag when you get it and distribute the namecard if you liked what you've got. ^_^

I firmly believe that the most important feature of life
is that it is shaped from the inside
as opposed
to being shaped from the outside
like any object is
It grows by absorbing food and things from the outside
sure
but it digests them
transforms them
and develops
following its internal nature
Its growth
will encounter
obstacles
outside
sure
Its growth
will depend
on the abundance or scarcity
of things to absorb
outside
sure
Its growth
will bump into other living things
outside
and be pushed around by them
sure
And so it will adapt its shape
to the cicumstances of the outside
sure
but this adaptation
will be done
according
to its internal nature
Or it doesn't qualify as life
anymore
-----------
And now
I'll go out on a limb here
but I believe
this is the same
for our minds
I believe
that our ideas
our thoughts
are alive
only
when they are shaped
from the inside
Sure
we will hear most of them
from the outside
However I believe
as we are not what we eat
but rather what we make of what we eat
once we break it all apart into its base constituents
and reuse these to build what we are meant to be
according to our nature
our thoughts and our ideas are not what we take directly from the outside
from what we hear and read
but rather
what we make of these after we entirely broke them apart
and
rebuilt them
from the inside
That is
of course
if we want our ideas and thoughts
to be alive
I feel
that every idea
every thought
that is taken
as is
or you know
with this minimal necessary adjustment
from the outside
without us breaking it apart
without us daring to break it apart
without us examining it under many angles
without fully digesting it
is as good as dead
I feel
that each time
we take an idea from outside
an opinion
a model
a doctrine
a belief
anything, actually
as is
or you know
with this minimal necessary adjustment
we are acting as a shopping cart
pushed by someone else
A dead recipient
And these thoughts
these ideas
being simply taken from the outside
not being inhabited by us
are just empty shells
covered in scriptures
never to be challenged
These are the toughts
and ideas
that we wish the others to share and express as well
that we wish the others adopt as well
so that we don't have to face any challenge
about them
These are the ideas and beliefs
that we love to give
but not want to discuss
because
they might be changed
and we would be left with nothing
These ideas
and thoughts
are acquisitions
that we refuse be taken away
We can only approach any discussion about them
with the strong knowledge that we will stick by them
and reject anything that challenges them
rather than
with the confidence that we can agree to examine them for what they actually are
are keep them only if they stand true
We can only say
once cornered
that we will not change them
no matter what
It's like that.
Period.
Any discussion
for which we have decided what will be true
in advance
is an exercice
in being an carrier
of boxes never to be opened
A discussion
shaped from the outside
Dead
And what if they
didn't
stand
after all ?
What would we be left with ?
We wouldn't be left with nothing
actually
We would be left
with us
as we are
Rather than
us
as we wish we were
Which of our beliefs would we not run the risk of having to change ?
Which of our opinions would we hate to realize does not stand ?
Which of these have we decided they are true ?
Which of these are we protecting by avoiding any challenge ?
Shine from the inside
Be alive
Grow
