The Other Half...

Hello Universe,

I’m Maybel, the other half of Felt.

I think you’ll be able to distinguish us very easily. Felt, such an appropriate name. As she feels things, always reading between the lines, one of the most loving and expressive people I know and as you’ve already seen, an excellent writer. My soul sister.

I see things through pictures, phrases, quotes and minimal words. I’d best describe it as a Sofia Coppola film.

So you want to know who I am, what I’m like?

I’m a lover of art, a patron of it. I admire artists, their abilities, what they create and their influence to inspire people. I love illustrators, I wish I could draw but my inability to do so cancelled out that career path. Music, I can’t live without it. It always sets the mood for me. Family and friends, like music, I can’t live without, I would gladly die for them. That’s how much I love them.

Fashion I enjoy it, I don’t take it too seriously and I think it’s another form of expression. Books, I heart them. Libraries and bookstores are my solace; I could literally spend years there. God? I believe in him. I believe that he has created us to shine, to be our better selves. I will always lift everything up to Him. Travel, love love love it! The best way to experience different cultures, meet new people, and throw you out of your comfort zone.

Hates? Dislikes? Like Felt I hate that the hardest person to forgive sometimes is yourself and I hate that you can be your own worst critic.

The only other things I don’t really like is when people cut their nails in public, chewing loudly and people listen to music on high volume on public transport.

My background.…I’m a Communications major. I’ve had a lot of jobs… retail, in marketing, I have packed my bags and travelled the world. But now am currently working for a well known fashion label.

My philosophy on life? Be the best you can be, to respect people, to love life and art.

Maybel
