May 29 Not just as it seems, my dress and i. "In life, what we own spiritually is more important than what we own materialistically".
Mom always taught me so. However, when it comes to lifetime learning, mom is never wrong.
I wasn't feeling on top of the world lately. This is what happened the other day. I was munching on my scone while staring blankly at the computer. There's just so much to blog yet i don't know where to start. Brainstorm . . I've been busy with work, in between appointments, trying to come up with some sales mechanics, getting things done before i leave. I've been busy with before i leave, i've got to come up with a check list of what to bring and what not to, i've gotta make sure i watch what i eat before the weight piles up on my ass.
I've gotta find myself a dress; something really nice for the wedding dinner. For a moment there, i'm awfully digusted with how greedy i am. Never to shame to admit my demerits. Yes, i've been a little way too greedy. I have dresses to choose from. But i gave myself stupid excuses, it's either too small or it's lost in touch with how fashion should be. I don't remember how beautiful it made me looked. How beautiful it is in the pictures, how people complimented on my taste, how elegant and everything. I don't seem to appreciate every single moment of it. Here i am complaining how dorky i looked then, how it didn't fit, how my arms looked in the picture and everything else!! I was practically feeling so down that i couldn't seem to find the right dress. Despite the fact that mom's teaching ran endlessly in my head, I simply couldn't convince myself not to search for a new dress.
So, the search begins. First day, i came home empty handed. I was so disappointed with the whole search. "When you want it, you don't get it" .. another phrase that kept ringing in my head. But still, i'm not convinced. This evening, the search begins again. Was walking by a local designer shop and i fell in love. It was purely love at first sight. For the whole of my life, i never believed in love at first sight. Even if there is, things may not turn out beautifully as it seems. True enough. I asked the boutique assistant to hand me a medium and i tried it on eagerly. The outcome, wasn't how i imagined it to be. You see, in life not everything is as beautiful as we imagine. Life is funny with a wicked twist. Just as i was about to give up and head for the door, there it is. It's definitely not the dress that i'd even glance at, but if i never try then i'll never know.
I walked in the dressing room with the dress in my hand and little hope in my heart. The moment i wore the dress. I sigh with relief. The search was over. Little did i know, many a times in life, things are not as it seems. Somethings in life may not seem attractive at first glance. But, if you learn to appreciate it. You will definitely see the beauty of it.
