My only ever owned pair of Cruel Girl jeans are over 5 years old now. They are beginning to look like that favorite pair in high school... the ones they finally wouldn't let me wear to school anymore. It amazes me people actually PAY lots of $$ for jeans that LOOK like my most comfy favorites. Parents, really? Tip: Just make her wear the same jeans for several years and they WILL eventually be the most comfortable pair she owns AND look "in style". Well, maybe not in style anymore. By that time, pleated baggies might be back in. Maybe? I can hope can't I?!! These jeans have probably lasted that long only because I wear skirts more than I wear jeans. I was thinking about cutting these into capris for summer until I realized I have a worn spot in the crotch that is almost a real hole. I may just cut the legs off and make a skirt out of them now. I'll have to make sure I don't have holes in any other important places first. Maybe I'll patch them with some cute mini calico prints. I can make a Bible cover out of one of the legs and maybe a new billfold out of the other. They WON'T go to waste, I promise. I'm NOT "green", I have green eyes and green is my favorite color, but I'm not eco-friendly in the sense most people think. I love reusing and repurposing, but NEVER recycle. I've researched recycle places... nasty! I believe in being a good steward of God's creation but I don't believe earthlings are killing their "mother" planet. The Bible says sin is causing creation to groan. I believe the Bible. Sin; not overpopulation, Western Civilization, or industry is causing all of creation, not only the earth to fall apart.
"For we know that the whole creation groaneth and travaileth in pain together until now." Romans 8:22 Soon, we won't have to worry about saving the Earth. (Not that I'm worried.)
"For, behold, I create new heavens and a new earth: and the former shall not be remembered, nor come into mind." Isaiah 65:17 That is an AMAZING promise! I'm looking forward to it. And look here; it's confirmed in the New Testament as well.
"Nevertheless we, according to his promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness." 2 Peter 3:13 I doubt the 'style' in Heaven will be ripped and worn out jeans... What do you think?
