So Chinese New Year has just passed.
It was great, not the best, but fun!
So this incident happened :
I painted my nails, and yeah I'm probably the worst at painting my nails, but I was happy with what I had. But hey, when I reached my hometown, my auntie commented that it looked horrible. Ok so I was like feeling bad. Then that night, i scratched like 3 nails clean cause I decided I didnt like it anymore but I didn't bring back the remover with me.
Fast forward to the next night when I went to my granduncle's for reunion night dinner. My auntie there (who's like 19) spotted my nails and she was like "why are like 3 nails bare?" And she offered to do it for me (awwww) and when I got back that night I decided that nothing anyone else said about my nails matters because someone likes it and patched it up for me ❤️
So I started thinking, like in life, when you criticise someone about their appearance / personality, it would make me feel how I felt about my nails. Then that person would take it really badly and start scratching off that part of them away, bit by bit.
However, once in a while, someone notices it and offers to patch it up for them. And for that while, that person would feel that nothing but joy about that part of them, because someone likes it and fixes it for you and essentially, fixes you.
Don't forget to be nice 😘
