The True Beauty Of A Messy Room

I, personally, think that there is a lot to be said for a messy room. There is something raw and true about it. It's almost as if you can know the person just by looking around the room at what they eat, the music they listen to, their taste in clothes, and the books they read. By the bent corner of a paperback, or the thousands of scuff marks on a pair of converse or even a pair of break-neck heels, you can feel what they love, how they live. In a clean room, you can't feel this kind of energy. The beat-up converse and the white, stained frock dress are put safetly away in a closet, hidden from the world. The empty cofffee cups or old coke bottles are hidden away in the kitchen. "Who is this person?" you may ask. But really, what is to be said about that person with the white walls, brown loveseat, and book on fishing on their coffee table? Maybe something, but we'll never know. But this isn't to be taken as me saying we should all  go and trash our bedrooms, (in fact, I cleaned mine today), but it is me saying a home, or even just a bedroom, should look lived in. It should have that energy, that style. And trust me,  my room is almost overflowing with 'energy.' With Joy, Ashley P.L.
