It was weird putting on different clothes this morning. I'm not sure how long I stared in my closet, but if my dress were clean, I may have just put it back on. I found myself with mixed feelings thinking about giving away much of my clothes. On one hand, I'm excited because I will be helping people in need and will be limiting my choice in daily attire (this is a good thing because I don't need all the clothes that I have in my closet and I will spend less time focusing on what I am going to wear for the day). On the other hand, I feel pressure to look good and fit into society with the style of clothes I wear and although I am rarely fashioned with the latest styles, I can usually search through my closet and throw an outfit together that looks pretty good. That might change after I get rid of a great amount of clothes. At any rate, I'm still going to go through my closet this month and donate a lot of clothes.
National Public Radio did a story called The Hidden Faces of Modern-Day Slavery focusing on slavery in the United States. Check it out.
