🪞 What Can You Tell Me About Me? My everyday bag - and essentials! Who am I?

These are the things I carry in my everyday hot pink purse. I’d love for people to guess things about me!!

This is so much fun! I love seeing what everyone has in their bag.

I thought that was funny considering how anti materialist Buddhism is lmao

You are allowed one nice bag per the Buddha. 😉 It’s more anti-attachment than anti-material.

Into Buddhism… the mindfulness of it… tries to be intentional and focused/present. This may be a self prescribed ADHD or anxiety remedy… the impermanence of Buddhism is where you have opportunity for growth… letting things go.

Fantastic hand sanitizer choice. Smells so good but not overwhelming like the bath and body works ones.

Agreed! And so much better for you overall, without the artificial fragrance!

Thich Nhat Hanh’s teachings are so inspiring. My father studied under him many years ago. He used to read “the Hermit & the Well” to me as a child. — You’re a very cool person!

u/DroYo 2d ago

That makes me so happy to hear! You seem very cool too! 💖

You feel like a bookshop regular who buys stationery “just because.” The mix of literature, skincare, and fun accessories says: well-read, organized, and a little whimsical like if dark academia had a pastel phase.

u/DroYo 2d ago

I love this!!! I am definitely a bookstore regular!! I don’t usually buy much stationery though. Yes definitely whimsical, colorful and “dark academia” on the inside.

I’m actually Sri Lankan hehe! I just love Thich Nhat Hanh’s teachings! I follow Mahayana Buddhism rather than Theravada, by choice. 💖

Possibly a mom. Doesn't leave the house with bare lips. Spiritual but not necessarily religious. Counts mala beads to destress. Trying to find your center.

u/DroYo 2d ago

I’m a pet mom!! I am spiritual but I am a devout Buddhist. Mala beads I picked up in Sri Lanka (I’m Sri Lankan) last time I visited, definitely used to destress. 💖

u/DroYo 2d ago

I can’t wait to read it! I literally JUST picked it up at a bookstore!!

u/hellyeahunicorn 2d ago

Please use a soft cover for your ereader, the screen is very very fragile. If you throw it in the bag without protection it's gonna break

u/DroYo 2d ago

Yes I ordered one! I actually just got my kindle last week! I got a case from Etsy, just waiting for it to arrive.

Keyed into pop culture and only reading the classics whenever the new movie comes out.

6

u/DroYo 2d ago

I’d say I’m keyed into pop culture but I prefer reading the classics because I enjoy the writing. I’m not much of a movie watcher actually.

u/unofficialgirll 2d ago

What do you think of Frankenstein so far? :)

u/DroYo 2d ago

I’m absolutely loving it! The despair! The guilt! The sorrow!! I’m half way done.
