It may mean rediscovering, but it may also mean new discoveries altogether. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/word-and-color-selfish-violet#post-2247999 Fri, 14 Jan 2022 22:21:25 +0000 Sally 2247999@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>As others has said, selfish can be a positive thing.&nbsp; I was going to have my words as 'please myself' because we need to look after ourselves primarily anyway and I think sometimes women need to push the pendulum in the opposite direction to our natural over consideration for others to achieve a balance. Great choice of colour.&nbsp; &nbsp;I"ll be interested to see how you express it.&nbsp; &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/word-and-color-selfish-violet#post-2247977 Fri, 14 Jan 2022 20:52:23 +0000 gryffin 2247977@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Self - ish.&nbsp; You need to concentrate on you, but the 'ish leave room for all the other 'ish's we know and love!!&nbsp; It's perfect.&nbsp; We all have to put on our own oxygen mask first.&nbsp; What a gorgeous color violet and I love how it's at the end of roygbiv - the ne plus ultra of arriving.&nbsp; Something to work toward and basically just a kick ass color for you!&nbsp; GL beaming love and good wishes for a new year filled with joy and discovery!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/word-and-color-selfish-violet#post-2247969 Fri, 14 Jan 2022 20:26:01 +0000 Jonesy 2247969@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Echoing everyone, this sounds like a perfect descriptor to guide your goals for the new year!

Here's hoping this blasted pandemic backs off so you can move ahead without so much pulling on you! xx </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/word-and-color-selfish-violet#post-2247768 Thu, 13 Jan 2022 13:13:56 +0000 UmmLila (Lisa) 2247768@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The last few years have been an upheaval for me as I transitioned to being a single person. Perhaps I could define them as lilac and indulgent in their best moments. It’s taken longer to re-establish than I’d like, mainly for pandemic reasons. The independence to make decisions without consulting anyone else has been refreshing. Moving ahead, I aim to concentrate more on personal goals, and less on interim comforts. I will call <b>selfish violet</b> this intention to build an inward intensity of focus on what’s important for 2022.</p> <p></p> <p>Lisa</p>
