It is Wednesday, the
midweek optimists look forward to while pessimists detest. It could either act
as a motivation that end of the week is approaching or swing downwards to act
as a mood depressant that it is midweek, where we are at our weakest since
traditionally people only feel better once Thursday comes.
I had originally written a long
piece but deleted it all away. A slow moving day and the move to sell some of
my betta collection was going nowhere. Some enquiries baring 2 sentences were
the maximum I had to go to end the conversation.
1) Hi
2) How much is it?
3) Price is $40.
4) So high ah? Its ok.
3) You are welcome.
Maybe some of them were used to
goldfish where they can get 20 pieces for $2… It’s difficult to see how
hobbyists can sell off their older betas when the market has already crashed
with desperate breeders trying to do some mini whole sale.
Keeping silent instead of shooting
off too easily with our mouths does seem to have its perks. It’s like checking
your work thoroughly before submitting the final draft. We also make better
judgment and by the time we hold on to
the extra few seconds, we might have avoided a situation where hurt and misunderstandings
could easily all fall in together. In this world of today, people get angry or
unhappy without even moving a finger. Not really.. because all you need is just
a finger to block some people off in Facebook or Instagram.
