“How wonderful and exciting to read about someone succeeding in making peace with the pull of these two worlds”
Wow, what a breath of fresh air! How amazing to read about someone connected to the high-end fashion industry and simultaneously involved in a real relationship with Hashem. When I was younger, I was very taken by the world of high fashion. As I grew in my avodas Hashem, I disconnected from that world, as I felt it got in the way for me. As my knowledge of self is evolving, I have come to my truth: Beautiful, quality, and well-cut clothes aren’t something I can be mevater on. I need “it” to express my inner beauty, and if I don’t give myself that means of expression, I’m stifling a portion of my self. Here begins my journey of straddling these two very disparate worlds: expression of beauty of the physical and beauty of the soul.
How wonderful and exciting to read about someone who is succeeding in making peace with the pull of these two worlds. Your write-up gave me such chizuk! May Hashem be with you on this life journey.
