after 2 consecutive days of shoe hunt in queensway, i'm getting quite sick by the overload of shoes. maybe i'm spoilt for choice. maybe i'm being too picky. maybe i spent too much time sauntering along the endless racks of shoes. but seriously, not one caught my eye. with that i meant that not one made me fall madly in love with it. sigh...nothing beats my faithful orange gel cumulus VII.how hard is it to part with an old friend? Very.
i'm gonna wait till feb when the new models arrive. ahhh. maybe i'll forget about how emotional i got with this old pair of shoe and start swooning over the new possession. i feel so cruel. but i realised i've been doing that all my life.
旧的不去，新的不来。
is that true??
does it only apply to our material possessions, or even people?
as i expand my circle of friends, i find it harder to juggle between everyone. i feel like a rubber band taut between many hands. sometimes i feel superficial and then sorry for acting that way. but being guilt-stricken doesn't help. i need substantial actions to salvage the damage i've done. but what?
is it a way of life to forget the old and embrace the new? why is it that best friends sworn to stay with each other till the end of time in the earlier stages of one's life often get thrown to the back of one's mind by the time 5 yrs have flown pass. maybe even shorter. there may be exceptions, but how many are there? friends are so important in one's life, but why do adults tell me they don't remember much of the friends they made in their school days.
i hope there's no expiry date for something so precious to me.
