Animal print

Animal print became popular for women in the United States in the late 1960s during the Bohemian movement. Christian Dior is credited as the first designer to put leopard print  rather than fur on the runway in 1947. “If a woman was wearing leopard, it means that she has a savage or wild sexuality. It became one of the most used prints in haute couture, and from haute couture it became democratized to streetwear, and it went back to the African continent free of its initial symbolism.” Leopard print does not involve the slaughter of rare animals and is valued for its eye-catching quality. When used in female clothing it can signify independence, confidence, sexuality and nonconformity, depending on the nature of the clothing or accessory.













PSYCHIATRIC HOSPITAL The bathtub test

 


PSYCHIATRIC HOSPITAL
The bathtub test
During a visit to a mental hospital, one of the visitors asked the director:
- What is the criteria for which they decide who needs to be hospitalized here?
The director replied:
- We fill a bathtub with water and offer the patient a spoon, a glass and a bucket and ask that it empty. According to how he decides to empty it, we decide whether or not to commit it.
Awwwwwwwwww I get it.
- A normal person would use the bucket, which is bigger than the glass and the spoon, the visitor said.
No! No! - replied the director.
- A normal person would remove tampon from sewer.
Which do you prefer?
Private room or shared?
Sometimes life has more options than those offered, just look at them.
Now tell the truth...
You also picked the bucket right?
I already knew it... we are all crazy.
Worth reading.
To know how many crazy people are out here...



THE SERENITY PRAYER

GOD GRANT ME THE SERENITY
TO ACCEPT THE THINGS I CANNOT CHANGE;
COURAGE TO CHANGE THE THINGS I CAN;
AND WISDOM TO KNOW THE DIFFERENCE.

LIVING ONE DAY AT A TIME;
ENJOYING ONE MOMENT AT A TIME;
ACCEPTING HARDSHIPS AS THE PATHWAY TO PEACE;
TAKING, AS HE DID, THIS SINFUL WORLD
AS IT IS, NOT AS I WOULD HAVE IT;
TRUSTING THAT HE WILL MAKE ALL THINGS RIGHT
IF I SURRENDER TO HIS WILL;
THAT I MAY BE REASONABLY HAPPY IN THIS LIFE
AND SUPREMELY HAPPY WITH HIM
FOREVER IN THE NEXT.
AMEN.
