made a long venture to the other side of the city today in hopes to find the most perfect area rug for my bedroom. something brown with green and maybe yellow flowers. but all i could find were several antique draping rugs that cost way too much money. i cant tell you how much of a difference a rug will make in my life. something potentially with a little elevation to it. fluffy or shag-like. so i can lay on the floor in the center of my room and stare at the ceiling while being oblivious to the cold colorless tiling just centimeters bellow. I've come to realize that everyone probably should own some kind of rug. even if they already have carpeting in their home. a good rug can fill the space better then upholstered furniture with matching window curtains. or assorted tropical plants in color coordinated ceramic pots....it can open the space up to colors and pattern-dynamics that were never thought possible. if you were to relate it to food it would be the butter for the bread. or the icing on the cake..... if you got tired of sitting in chairs or sleeping in beds you can always resort to the rug space. something neutral but conveniently located. possibly the most transitional space indoors and potentially the most tranquil.......well depending on the rug. a rug made of wool may be too itchy. or a rug made of silk would slip from under your feet. or maybe it just depends on your mood. sometimes having more than one rug can be a good thing. you could even collect rugs to line the walls! definitely wont have to worry about falling into things. could even wear sunglasses after sunset with the room dimly lit b y a single candle. it would also be that much more inviting to invite your friends over for roller skating parties and at the same time you would surely save on heating bills in the winter.
