My experience has deepened my compassion and admiration towards immigrants and ex-pats throughout the world. I’m inspired and moved by the grit and iron-clad determination that I’ve witnessed from numerous individuals within these groups. We’re all navigating our unique quests simultaneously to find a place we call home and establish a life of pride, liberty, and happiness.

After getting locked out of our condo, I went into Mr. Quickie to have some extra keys made. While the store clerk cut my keys, she energetically belted Whitney Houston’s song, “All at Once” that was blaring from the small radio next to the cash register. I instinctively wanted to hug her, then ask her to tell me her secret sauce to happiness. As I left, she said, “Take care always”, almost as if she were uttering a sincere prayer.

Yes, we women love to dress up, we enjoy indulging in Shringara immensely, because it pleases us. We occasionally dress up to indulge someone special when we are in the mood. We dress up for work, we dress up for meetings, we dress up for our evening outings. For dressing up is so much more than Solah Shringar, there’s power dressing, broad room dressing, leisure dressing and more, and we like to dress appropriately for every occasion, with the right makeup and jewellery. We may dress to impress, we may dress to make a statement, but most importantly we dress up because we love to look good, that feels so great!
