I came across this bit of wisdom in Today's Clothing (J.B.Lippincott Co., 1949 page 292), one of my many vintage Home Economics textbooks. I especially love it that the image was originally published by Better Homes and Gardens, the people who are still bringing us, well, better homes and gardens.
But who knew? Here I've been trying meditation, psychotherapy, hot baths, positive thinking, gratitude, volunteering, visualization, somatic experiencing, behaviour modification, 85% dark chocolate, yoga, and kissing my dog on her lips when really, all I need to do to improve my satisfaction is take proper care of my hat.
Life was obviously simpler in 1949.
my hats are squashed on various shelves, crushed under coats on various pegs and lost in my kids tickle trunk....ahhhhhh, it is all so very clear now!..thanks for the tip :)
