Nov 21, 2024 - Theme Thursday: National Philosophy Day

  • Brush: Declaration Grooming Magic Hour 28mm B8 Badger Knot
  • Razor: Karve Shaving Co. Overlander
  • Blade: Gillette 7 O’Clock Super Stainless (Green) [8]
  • Lather: Ariana & Evans - Asian Plum - Soap
  • Post Shave: Barrister and Mann - Vespers - Splash

Today is cold. First snow of the season. Christmas Markets start to open this weekend. Vespers felt right paired with Asian Plum.

Cycle of Renewal and Rest

Winter has been symbolic of rest, reflection, and the quietude needed for regeneration. It's a time to embrace stillness and allow for the decay of the old, paving the way for new growth.

Spring represents renewal, vitality, and hope. It embodies the promise that life, even after the darkest moments, can emerge new and flourish.

Embrace the periods of inactivity and hardship as necessary precursors to rejuvenation and progress.
