It's Hard to Be "Just Right"
Ah, life can be frustrating sometimes. Like trying to thread a needle, if it fits, thank God, if it doesn't, well.... never mind, take a deep breath.
I remember when I was in college. Imagine! The schedule for dating my boyfriend had to be adjusted to the schedule for practicals, group assignments, and part-time jobs. Not to mention if he had a sudden family event. Gosh! It felt like trying to align the orbits of the planets in a mini solar system.🙃
"How about Saturday?"
"Ah, I have an event with my cousin."
"Sunday?"
"You were the one who said there was a group assignment?"
"Oh yeah... hehehe."
That's about it. Make it coincide. Make everything just right and fit. Like playing Tetris at expert level you have to be fast, precise and don't let there be any empty spaces that will make the game over.
But the funny thing is sometimes it's the incompatibility that makes life more colorful. Like the time we ended up going on a date at a roadside catfish stall because the planned restaurant was closed. Oh it turned out to be an unforgettable memory. Plus bonus: it turned out the catfish sauce was really great!
But that's how it is. That's life. Sometimes we have to adjust, sometimes life gives us sweet surprises. The important thing is not to be too rigid in trying to make everything perfect.
