Are you a romantic?
Yesterday, a pastor who we have been staying with in denver, a man I respect for his wisdom and insight, and one of my dearest friends said to me "I've figured you out, I think you are a romantic"
I thought for a moment and said yes, I am, and wearing a kilt for me, arises out of a love for those romantic periods of history that I feel kilts relate to.
I thought of the celts, the renaissance, and other times when men were not confined to gray suits or puritanical plain clothing.
Sure, in many ways they were violent times, but so are the days we live in. (just remember NY and London).
Yes I am a romantic, I long to reproduce in my own life those times that reflect mans' greatest attributes and periods of creativity, and the kilt is to me an important of that experience, and who i am.
So bring back the gay clothing, the colour and finery, bring back the kilt and all it's heritage, the link to former times, the freedom from normalcy and the comfort and beauty of the world's most impressive clothing!
Are you a romantic?
