You know how it was when you were a kid and your mom bought both you and your brother identical shiny, new toys? You were happy playing with yours at first but then after some time; somehow, it seemed that your brother’s toy appeared more appealing than your own.
This morning I felt as if I was back in my childhood again. This time I was envying something that an acquaintance of mine owns. The thing is that the said item wasn’t particularly attractive but somehow I was asking myself: if she can have it, why can’t I?
Maybe I am capable of making it happen but it’s just that at this juncture of my life, I have made my choices and obviously, this is not one of them.
Sour grapes.
Sometimes, what we see on the outside may not necessarily be the real deal.
It could be or it could be not.
Only she knows best.
