I try NOT to carry a purse anymore. That’s my goal. When I wear jeans or khakis, I use my pockets for keys, a lipstick and some money. I feel freer without a purse. I think that men are freer because they don’t carry purses. Though I know a lot of men are lugging laptops now and they don’t look so free to me anymore.
Some women have their whole life in their handbags. They carry everything – just in case. They might need a flash light or an extra pair of shoes.
It’s a burden of possession, don’t you think? I don’t want that anymore.
The next thing to get rid of are all my keys except the house key and the car key.
I am aspiring to have no responsibilities that require a purse. |
