This morning I walked to the subway and my whole path was sprinkled with red glitter. Somehow, this seems even more fabulous than a red carpet walk. Surely glitter is a harbinger of some unutterable amazingness, something so fine a red carpet just wouldn’t do … But at the Atlantic Avenue subway station? Guess I’ll just have to trust.

I love this! Why is there never any red glitter outside my front door?? I particular adore this: “Surely glitter is a harbinger of some unutterable amazingness” – great words!

Embrace the glitter…finding little peaks of beauty in your day is what makes for a happy one. It would be fun to write stories of how it got there in the first place! Or a poem….hmmmm?

I hate glitter! But then I read your post and there was a split-second that I wished I could have seen it myself. That I was actually convinced it was better than a carpet. Definitely not a pathetic post.

I’m glad my glitter-enthusiasm had an effect on you! (I, meanwhile, am a total glitter-lover … to the point where I used to wear body glitter regularly!)

And RED glitter!! Could there be any color of glitter more promising of excitement?
This has just reminded me last night I dreamed we lived in NYC and were walking around thinking how lucky we were. 🙂
