It's OK to take care of myself by buying things that I desperately need - like Frida-Kahlo style jewelry, French perfume and some Capri pants. Some people may not call these items "needs," but "wants." Well, everyone is entitled to their own opinion. Sure I also need to pay the rent and buy groceries, but that stuff doesn't make me feel "abundant." Just for today it's OK to shop for items that make me feel "abundant." If I start feeling compulsive, I can always say the serenity prayer in a dressing room and ask for God's help with my shopping purchases. Just for today it's OK to take care of my needs.
