like picking up tofu with chopsticks
Over this weekend I think I've learnt that relationships are like tofu. Ok the explanation for this seemingly silly and random analogy is cos I went for dinner with my family on Saturday and my brother and I were having trouble picking up the tofu with our chopsticks. And that was when I realised that interactions with other people can be compared to picking up tofu with chopsticks. If you press too hard/ apply too much pressure, the tofu will fall apart and you'll end up having to deal with all the pieces. If you let your chopsticks go slack, well you won't be able to pick anything up at all, and your tofu will slip and flop back to where it was and you have to start all over again. With just the right pressure and technique, picking up tofu with chopsticks will come naturally.
Go figure.
(I'm sorry it's like 12am and rational thought has ceased to exist.)

about
raining candies
I am many things.
I am a lean mean book machine.
I am a hip hop ballerina.
I am a quirky weirdo.
I am on the pursuit of happyness.
I am trying to stay realistically optimistic.
I believe a little faith, trust and pixie dust can solve many problems.
I also believe that being environmentally friendly will save the world.
I love technology, music, candy and God.
I will never develop an eating disorder because I don't have that determination to resist food.
