I lost my cool yesterday. Twice, in fact.
Totally un-cool.
And to think of myself as someone with a high threshold of tolerance limit who cannot seem to recall when was the last time she lost her temper.
Maybe it's true that what you perceive yourself to be, is, most of the time, totally different from what others think of you.
You may think the world of yourself and yet, the people around you actually find it difficult to say something nice about you.
You may be an insecure little soul and yet, there's someone out there who adores you and thinks highly of you.
I guess there are a lot of delusional people out there, including yours truly.
I'd like to think that I'm a thoughtful person but deep down inside, I know I'm a selfish being.
At least I'm honest about it.
Admission is one thing, making a change is a completely different song altogether.
"We did not change as we grew older; we just became more clearly ourselves." - Lynn Hall
Tick-tock,
"I wanted a perfect ending. Now I've learned, the hard way, that some poems don't rhyme, and some stories don't have a clear beginning, middle, and end. Life is about not knowing, having to change, taking the moment and making the best of it, without knowing what's going to happen next. Delicious ambiguity." – Gilda Radner

Why does Monday come before Tuesday?
I was amused when I was reading my daily dose of horoscopes last week written by Yasmin Boland at moonology.com.
I had a 'Killing Me Softly' moment right there and then.
Which brings me to this question:
If the grass is indeed greener on the other side, does this person living on this 'other side' actually know how lucky he/ she is?
Why is it that we can't just be content with what we have? After all, the saying 'a bird in hand is worth two in the bushes' must have originated somewhere.
