WEEK 48 - 21/6/12 - SHAME

"We live in an atmosphere of shame. We are ashamed of everything that is real about us; ashamed of ourselves, of our relatives, of our incomes, of our accents, of our opinion, of our experience, just as we are ashamed of our naked skins.”— George Bernard Shaw

- LORENA - Shameful thing to surrender ourselves to the dull and rigid world expectations.

- DAPHNE - we can own it all, and still have nothing. our expectations buried int the minds of others. we are ashamed to show, and we are ashamed to hide.

WEEK 47 - 14/6/12 - SHAME

"I come home that morning, after I been fired, and stood outside my house with my new work shoes on. The shoes my mama paid a month's worth a light bill for. I guess that's when I understood what shame was and the color of it too. Shame ain't black, like dirt, like I always thought it was. Shame be the color of a new white uniform your mother ironed all night to pay for, white without a smudge or a speck a work-dirt on it.”— Kathryn Stockett, The Help

- LORENA - How sad is a white canvas, a material meant to scream out loud but that was left muted.

- DAPHNE - carefully placed silver beads hold together by a lock that can just as easily fall apart and scatter the shimmers all over the floor.

WEEK 46 - 7/6/12 - SHAME

"Shame may restrain what law does not prohibit.”                          — Seneca
