white linen live's

In my line of work ( design ) one often come's accross a client wanting just that something diffrent; Which may be why my house is decorated so incredibly dully. Its not that I am terrible at design or that I lack creativity, its more that I sometimes at our need for new and shiny. What is wrong with us that 'a huise bye die sea', two kids and a bicycle just doesn't cut it any more. Way do we constantly need more, more, more, while all the time longing for the shalom we achieved at age six, somewhere while carting a teddy bare and a pick nick basket to some warm corner of the garden. In our lust to achieve that, things we all long for, fame , fortune , a job and a morgage. Have we lost sight of white linen living? Must everyone be exeptional, or are some of us just plain old ordinary? more to the point is there anything wrong with that? Being avarage, can have its advantages. being able to go to the mall without being noticed may be one of them. Perhaps we have lost sight of right now; perhaps this is way everyone want to be French. There is something so alluring in their ability to just enjoy every minuite of life, bon vi vant? blue sky , green grass , vinilla ice- cream on hot summers days with your feet diped into a cast iron wash tub. languishing under neith that old gum tree. Whishing today could last forever.
