Salt·y – (of language or humor) down-to-earth; coarse. Truth -the quality or state of being true.
There are some salty truths in life worth embracing, some heartfelt and greatly admired…and some not. Salty Truths is about listening to the subtle whispers of your inner voice…where your deepest truths often reside.
Whether it’s a big or small truth, soft or abrasive, loud or obnoxious, if you listen closely, each truth holds a valuable lesson to help us truly appreciate and live a more authentic and meaningful life. Because, in the big picture of life, it’s all about living out your self-truths that settle well…truths that hold far more meaning when its salty.
On Books, Muses and My Musings
I admire those that have written, spoken, and live their truths in life with a take-it or leave-it graceful attitude and without the trappings of others’ opinions. Yes, I am talking about muses. The masters of life riddles. The ones that endured and endure worlds of mishaps and misfortunes only to transform and become exceptional influencers.
Living in truth comes naturally for few, but a lifelong ever-striving practice for most. The balance is knowing how to corral these truths to become better and not let what is unjust to swallow you up. And this is the reason I adore books. And the reason for my never-ending unsatisfied appetite for books.
On Worlds of Fashion and Beauty
Fashion and beauty worlds is and will always be subjectively opinionated. But for me it is more about feeling and being your absolute best version of your story that leaves a positive impression on others. It’s also about reveling the best of what you were given…whatever that may be.
In the fashion and beauty worlds, everyone owes it to themselves to discover what allows them to feel great and be themselves. After all, fashion and beauty can be simple and minimal or decidedly elaborate… it’s what you and what you choose it to be. Personally, I think the world of fashion and beauty it’s a fabulous place to start finding you.
Above all, listening and living out your truths and only your truths is creating a genuine fulfilled life. Sharing my thoughts or sparking conversations, whether frivolous or feasible, feeds my soul and brings purpose and solitude. I have found incredible power in being transparent with others.
Salty Truths is for those who live their everyday truths and for those that are not quite there yet but still dream of living their truths. It’s for the dreamers or free-spirts, the timid or bold, the rebel or bohemian, the socialite or working girl or boy. It’s for the mother, sister, brother, best friend, son or daughter…because living your truth is the greatest tribute to your resolution and purpose in life.
