February 15, 2023: For those who don’t know I have recently become a kilt person. That is over the last several months I have started wearing a kilt more often. Right now it’s only for special events and when I go axe throwing, but I’m slowly building up a collection and hoping to wear a kilt more regularly as the weather gets warmer. I was telling a friend of mine about a particular tartan that I want to get, and I’ll post a link to the video here ( https://youtu.be/X7HOUDpINcs ). While I’ve been trying to learn more about kilts and the meanings behind different tartans, I came across this video and have decided that I want to make the CONTINUE tartan one of my next purchases. However, I have had no luck in finding it at any online store. This past week, however, I was talking to a buddy of mine and shared this information with him. Later that night he sent me a link to a Facebook group specifically for this tartan, and I immediately found that they were putting together a headcount to place a large order! Today I am grateful for how this timed out, for the people who are organizing this purchase, for my friend who pointed me this way, and for those who believe in bringing mental health awareness to the forefront of conversations. I’ll try to keep you updated as I go, just know that I am super excited about this!!! | Today’s character is the teacher of us all, as he taught us the way and set an excellent example for how to carry and conduct yourself (at least from a certain point of view). | Behind every great man, there is a great woman without whom he would be lost.
