Like one time, I went to Lex, my ex boyfriend's football match, and because we lived quite far away from each other so none of his friends meet me before. Then there was one of his friends came over sat right next to me and yelled out "So where is Mr Big Sex's shmexy asian girlfriend?" and everybody was eyeballing me at her lol. After that, she was too embarrassed to talk to me, but we became good friends later on. Things like these still makes me laugh thinking about it.
Just silly things like that is what we need to capture in our lives, to make us see all the wonderful occasions this world could bring.
I went to the Jazz and Blues festival this afternoon down at Darling Harbor by myself. While the music was playing, everybody was moving to the rhythm and enjoying themselves. after the music, they had the fireworks on, while energetic music flowed through the speakers out to everyone of us.
As I watched these magical lights flicker in the night sky, I wonder to myself; why do people like fireworks so much? It really is just gun powder setting off in the sky over us... But then I realized it doesn't matter what it is, the point is that it makes people happy, it puts a smile on everybody's face. Why? because we are all willing to open up and see the beauty in something so simple, even if it takes sitting out in the cold rain in the middle of winter. Just like one of the songs they played tonight, the chorus goes like this 'Can you see the beauty, even if it's not pretty.' I thought it was perfect.
