I took a break after studying at KAP macs and went to queensway shopping centre to hunt down a pair of red street-soccer shoes which I last caught sight of, just before june hols. The last I recall, I made a huge fuss out of it to daryl. Man, I wanted that shoe. In my mind, I could still remember its brilliant red coat, heel cushion n stuff. Right, now time to hunt it down.
It took me quite some time to find the shop. When I eventually did, together with the shoe, I picked it up and stunningly realised that I was devoid of any affinity towards it. It did not appeal to me anymore. Instead, I saw that the tip had no extra sewing (which meant that it would be opening up, talking to me in no time), the shape of the front was not aesthetically appeasing at all (almost reminded me of a hammerhead shark and stingray crossbreed). The only appeal it had was the somewhat glittering sides. I checked the price and walked out of the shop like a typical dissatisfied Singaporean Shopper.
I realise how fickle minded I am, even in the smallest things. Or maybe this can be taken to a macroscopic level. Humans are at the whim of random circumstances or emotions, changing over time. Something so beautiful could eventually turn out otherwise when revisited.
That is why love will crumble if it is built upon the foundation of feelings. Feelings cannot be trusted and cannot stand erect when all else changes. It has no sense of loyalty or values.
That is why love is a commitment. And I need to learn that before I step into anything.
No wonder a detractor of marriage once said in a chinese tv drama serial that women are just like shoes. Once you're sick of it, change.
what utter rubbish.
