A glimpse

After making a pair of earrings, I asked myself the major question "How should I package it this time?" I had several options. I could (a) use a used box (b) make a new box (c) anyhow wrap with gift wrappers (d) AOM (any other methods)...

It was midnight and I was very tired after a long day of hearing nothing but family violence. However, I felt that I had the responsibility to serve my customer to the maximum - my sister. I was getting a tad desperate. For (1) I do not have a small used box that fit earrings; (2) I hate making gift boxes cause it's so time consuming and after making many boxes, I was rather "sick" of making one more; and (3) I do not like gift wrappers so I do not have gift wrappers. I sat and I thought and I scanned around my room and I suddenly had an idea! (It's good to live in a room that's filled with deco items)

Wah la.. When I completed it, I had SUCH great satisfaction as a creator. In the morning when my sister came back from work and saw it, she was so ecstatic. Though I was sleepy and VERY tired and even to the extend of "blaming" her for waking me up, deep down, I was extremely glad that my customer was satisfied.
Actually, even if my customer wasn't satisfied, I was already satisfied. I nearly felt that I could copyright it. The satisfaction, the bliss, the simple joy, the ecstasy.

More so, for that short moment, I thought I had a glimpse of how God felt when He created the heavens and the earth, the day and the night, the creatures of the world. In everything that God created, God saw that it was good. I believed He must have been very pleased. When I was taking a photo of it, I thought "I hope the owner will really take good care of it. It look so precious." I believe, God must have felt that way too. And I believe that when man sinned, God must have been very upset.



Digress... I will be starting a new blog for my accessories soon. Do patronize me if you need any ya? *Wink*
