gah...went to east coast from 8am to 5pm today...ex..haus..ted. Had judo training in the morn at the beach..haha..god..realised how weak im...cant even do 30 sit upswithout my tail bone hurting like hell...i seriously better grow fitter during the holidays..=(
Anyway! went with grace song after that to free her hermit crab and pick shells, cycled alllll the way to changi just to do that. And i learned sth else from picking shells today.
Shells are likened to humans.The pretty ones are always broken or cracked whereas the plain and simple ones are always whole. Also, if you dig low beneth the sand, although its hard work, there are lots of really unique and rare shells that you would never find on ground.These shells can only be found in very ulu-fied beaches, never it crowded ones. Even if every shell looks the same, if you look closely, each has its on unique individual pattern, no two shells have the same pattern (not that i saw anyway) .Also, some shells are hidden amoung algae,driftwood,sand and god knows what,so they cant be easily spotted, but if you take the time and effort to look through the pile, you would find really beautiful and pretty ones, though they most likely will be convered in muck but when you clean it up, its true beauty glows radiently from the muck.
These shells somewhat remind me of people. People who have really special talents can lie hidden in the crowd, they lie undiscovered because people dont take the time to look carefully.Or evena misguided person can be guided to the correct path, and who knows, these people may have talents and skills the world never knew, if only given the chance. Just like shells, when people find a shell covered in dirt and sand, they dont really bother to see whats underneth and throws it aside without knowing what lies beneath all that muck.Same goes with people with a criminal record, if given a chance, im very sure they too will shine. People with special talents are everywhere, its just that some are hidden away in places you never imagined.Everyone is unique, its jus that some were never given a chance to shine.Everyone has talents, its just that some people have to dig deeper to find them, and these talents are usually the greatest talents of all.
