Now, this probably would be the rare moment (the only time thus far?) that i am using a Chinese proverb/saying to blog on something. So, bear with me...
The above proverb means "Losing wealth to prevent calamity", and after hearing it from 3 different people, i do have to say i can take hints...so there you go, powers that be. I accept that the loss of something valuable to me is now inevitable. By the way, it was a beautiful gold ring topped with a piece of oval-ish jade. And i only have it immortalized in my memory (which will fade with time, of course). Right now i know that nothing i can do will bring it back, and whoever finds it is blessed (by me? LOL *fingers crossed and looking out for lightning strikes*). In life, one must always take the bitter with the sweet, and losing this ring is still a sore point for me. But if it's not meant to be mine, no matter how i try to hold on to it, it will not remain with me. While i had it, i had a good time wearing it :) and it did turn from a light-ish green to a somewhat apple-y shade of green. Shows i have an affinity for jade. Anyway...
Lesson learnt : BE. MORE. CAREFUL. WITH. YOUR. POSSESSIONS. PERIOD.
Rant over. And back to life as usual...
PS: Watched "It's Complicated". Meryl Streep + Alec Baldwin + Steve Martin = Superb Lead Cast! Really good movie too, imho.
