Summary

Glitter is a strange and often polarising object. Besides the environmental damage caused by these small pieces of plastic, in some instances, it has come to embody the self-indulgent behaviour of desecrating floor space with everlasting impact, just for a single event. To other people, it could be an indicator of something tasteless. I think this is part of what makes glitter such a wonderful concept to me, maybe part of me loves the irreverence? The other thought to consider is that if significant meaning and perspective can be found in even something like glitter, there is hope and significant opportunity available to find the mindful moment amidst the seeming chaos of everyday life. The message is not so much about glitter as it is about paying attention, finding wonder in the ordinary, and coming back to a sense of centre when and where possible.
