Day 20 – 06/10/2018 – Lessons from a Wool Hat – Embrace our uniqueness

So today I bought a new hat. It’s a woolly hat, and it so warm and it makes me very, very happy! You may be wondering why I am writing about a new Wool hat which I have just purchased and why it has made me so happy!

Well one thing: it is very warm, and I live in Scotland so I appreciate warm things, and secondly it wasn’t the hat itself, but the label which was on it. The hat is from a company called Barts, and when I looked at the label I saw this:

The label said:

“This article was made completely made by hand. Please understand and accept it’s imperfections and enjoy its uniqueness.”

Before you all think I have lost my mind let me explain. I know the label was talking about the hat but, it got me thinking. Each person is completely unique, and everyone is imperfect, just like my hat. Often (I know I do) rather than embrace our uniqueness and imperfections we cover them up, and try to hide from them, often out of fear of what other people will think. This label on a hat made me realised that, the things which make me unique and my imperfections, are what make me, me, and without them, no matter how much I may dislike them, it is these things which I should embrace, rather than hide them away.

So that is what I learnt from a Woolly hat, that uniqueness, and imprecations are things to be enjoyed and treasured, rather than hidden away, or ashamed of.

Love

  1. I agree. Embrace who we are. I truly believe in staying true to ourselves. Everyone has their strengths and weaknesses- everyone is different and that makes the world unique
