White sheets

Don't use White bedsheets. You have a baby and it'll get stains on it. So? I bought White bedsheets because I love all things White. They look so pure. So unadulterated. So summery. So beautiful. Was I going to be scared of stains on the sheet? Isn't that what a sheet is for- to absorb the stains - physically manifested and not- the stains of hard work of the day? I went right ahead and used the sheet. My room looked lovely and the bed looked twice it's size. Life is like White bedsheets. Often we keep quiet because we don't want to taint ourselves with the brash tag. We like to be the ideal, the  unsullied.  But guess what- it's fun only if you have orange ice-cream on your White bedsheet. Later, you can sit back and attribute all those myriad stains to a happy memory of life. Not a regretful memory which holds you back!
