- I'm really confused.. I thought we had a good time.. and then you never called, and I never called cause you never called... & I guess that's fine.. but I just have to know.. did I do something, or..?
- Uhm, no... I don't know... We were sitting on the couch and... you just seemed a little full of yourself..
- Ok, glad we straightened that up! :)
Miranda, Sex&The City, Season 4, The Real Me
... We always try to accesorize our life and make it look so chic and glamorous. We sometimes like those accesories so much that we want to use them forever and ever, never change them because we grow attached to them and think they are the best ones we could ever wear..
[A freaky jewel lover advice: when you get a jewel, make sure those rocks are real diamonds and not some kind of fakes.. the price might be high but it's sometimes far from telling the truth]
But you can't actually keep the same old earings and that cute golden butterfly ring for
always... we sometimes get bored of them, we may sometimes lose them or they sometimes break and no silversmith can put those pieces where they belonged. Sure you're mad and wouldn't hear about it.. you will surely be able to find that lost piece somewhere near your pillow or you certaintly can glue it back and it will shine like new!!
But you can't... there are times when you simply can't, as much as you'd try to. Sure it's ashame.. you cared for it dearly, but the best thing to do is put it in a real pretty pink jewel box and keep it there safe.
Truth is you can never please everyone. You can't make the world a better place, you can't be Superman or even Supergirl for everyone. We aren't perfect, and hell, yeah.. sure there are plenty of reasons to feel ashamed of what you've sometimes done, but hey, that's life.. nothing is absolutely perfect, we mess it up, others mess it up.. by the time you wanna do something about it maybe there's no clean water left...
I will never believe those people who say they would never change anything about their past... We all have broken golden butterflies... and I can bet we all at least bought a superglue.
I would, I would change soooo many things and make them right ... But I guess that if I could do that, I wouldn't be living in my life anylonger, I would be building up some kind of a perfect situation. But Life is so far away from perfect.., people die, people leave, people get hurt, things get messy, they get broken, maybe never to be repaired again, people refuse to care anylonger, they cheat, people get scared, they lie.. we sometimed lay a perfect foundation for confusions and misunderstandings, we are sometimes scared to know the truth, to do better, to accept people that are wrong or those who try to make things right.
Even so, maybe there are billiands of little butterflies out there, probably not identical with your first one, but still, many others... Maybe we just need to face our fears, accept the fact that maybe there is no perfect friendship, no ideal soulmate, no immaculate life... still, that shouldn't keep us away from trying, loving, caring, kicking, or living, for fear we might get hurt again.
Even though you're sometimes crushes, you've got a choice: you can either slink off the runway and let your inner model die of shame, or you can pick yourself up, sexy pink-hearted shorts and all and finish at the edge of the catwalk.
Turns out when real people fall down in life, they get right back up and keep on walking... the cute t'shirt, those adorable shorts and the wonderful butterfly are surely precious.. but they are still just accesories ;)
- even so, if we get lucky, we might at one point find a butterfly that we are ment to wear forever -
