RE: An unexpected find is this week's market Friday

in Market Friday2 years ago

How fun this was! I like quirky little shops like this, I don't even need to buy, just looking is so much fun! I like how they decorated it also, are the rugs on the floor for sale? I have been in that kind of shop, it is like an Estate sale! Everything goes!

The dresses and such hanging off the ceiling are a nice touch, so feminine and lacey, a real delight to walk into. The fact that it is an old church enhances the entire scene.

How lucky to come upon this and thank you for sharing it with us!

Thank you for being a part of #MarketFriday! I cannot tell you how pleased I am to see so many participating every week. I have learned so much about the different cultures of the world, especially the small things that go unnoticed except by those looking for them. Life is interesting, wherever you are, whatever you are doing. I hope the week has found you healthy and happy, as we all look to prosper in our way of life.

#MarketFriday began as a way to reach out across the globe and learn about different cultures through their markets, especially local markets and farmers' markets, and eventually branched out and evolved over time from straight shopping to a cultural affair as it highlights how we differ and then again, how much we are alike. We have become a melting pot of culture, but, it is still the Rituals, Festivals, food, architecture, and even your language/languages that separate us... Along with the fact that is these things are normal for us. There are unwritten rules that rule our social behaviors. I see this as allowing for increased tolerance between cultures and nations, and opportunities to come together on an even playing ground. A strong culture can be beneficial to a country as it promotes unity, especially during a crisis, peaceful debate, and open dialogue. I have learned so much about all of you and it has been an amazing experience. I can only hope that learning about each other can help us work together for a peaceful world.

I confess that I visualised myself 12 inches taller trying on some of those pretty lacy dresses hanging from the rafters, fitting perfectly but alas the picture lasted only a moment until the reality of only 5 feet 3 inches took over. 😀

I am in awe of your everlasting positive energy overseeing trillions of #marketFriday posts. You are amazing Denise (@dswigle). xx
