While net surfing I clicked my address bar for the drop-down of recently viewed sites and noticed one of them was a clothing site (http://www.newportnews.com/) so I visited. Suddenly, I'm checking out Kate Spade for an every-day black leather bag. My husband claimed I was shallow for online window shopping.
Does the desire to shop make me shallow? Just like any other woman, I put the needs of those around me before my own, I work like he does and still carry out domestic duties. To top it off I make sure I have time for my friends and social clubs (not networks) and spend plenty of quality time with my husband daily but because I want to go shopping from time to time I'm shallow? I recycle, donate, pay tithes, go to church, care for others and the environment, garden, play with my cat and volunteer sometimes. Why does wanting to shop make me shallow? Does checking facebook and twitter all day even while working make someone internet addicted or withdrawn? Does playing sports with friends on weekends make someone an athlete? So what if I dream of Michael Kors sportswear while he dreams of nature conservation. That doesn't make me shallow.
Because someone shops or gets excited when browsing doesn't mean they have no depth. Looking on facebook to see if old school mates are still losers is in my opinion. I blog for heaven's sake! My husband spends at least 2 hours on facebook daily I use the computer at home maybe 3 times a week. But I'm shallow? I think not. I'm not on any social network right now and spend most of my time doing things for him. He's on the computer all day and night daily. Looks to me like he doesn't know what shallow is but cynical, he's got down to a "T".
