You Are What You Wear!


One of my cousins is a very successful costume designer. He works all over North America, even for a famous circus. By producing, designing or finding the right costume, it makes it easier for the actor to convince the audience that he/she is the character.


I know that as a teacher, certain colors somehow get better behavior/attention from my students than others. Teaching is theater. That's something I've been saying for a long time.


But if you think about it, our everyday choice of clothes and appearance is as important as my cousin's profession. We're all actors. We're all "on display."


I'm very interested in this book, SOMETIMES YOU ARE WHAT YOU WEAR, by Rabbi Eliayu Safran.
