Can the Perfect Handbag Impact My Social Goals?

The perfect handbag is as elusive as the perfect partner. You try them on, take them out, see how your friends feel about them, and then take them home. You want to break them in, but you know that they aren’t going to change too much from the initial meeting. You want to be able to take them anywhere; out to dinner, to the movies, or to a fancy dinner, and know that they will fit in. When you’ve finally found that perfect handbag, or date for that matter, you never want to let them go, and can’t even imagine a replacement!

I am still on the hunt for the perfect bag, but I can envision it in my head. I have the entire wish list, yes, the same kind I had for “the perfect spouse” once upon a time.

Here are my requirements (for the bag, I'm not sharing that other list):

1) Black with silver hardware, preferably leather

2) Medium size- not too big or too small, so that it is ready for any occasion

3) Lots of pockets so that I can stay organized and don’t become one of those “bag ladies” who is constantly digging for her keys, phone, makeup, or whatever.

4) Adjustable shoulder strap so it can be worn on one shoulder, or across the chest

5) Matches anything

Just as I quest for this infamous bag, it seems I also have my social goals to match.

1) A government who cares for its people more than it cares about power and money

2) A country that is more concerned with community that TV

3) Health and wellness for all, regardless of social status or circumstance

4) A minimum wage above the poverty line

5) Affordable housing, so that good and hardworking families are not living on the street

It seems at times that the search for the perfect fashion statement seems trivial when we have all these other concerns on our plate. However, one thing this ongoing quest has taught me is this, no matter how “dreamy” our wish list may seem at times we can never stop looking. When we stop looking for the perfect bag, man, woman, or government then we will lose all hope of ever finding it. Perhaps when I do find that perfect bag it will just be more confirmation that my other goals can also be achieved. We just need to roll up our sleeves, tighten our Prada belts, and continue searching for those things that we deem “perfect.”
