Make Up!
It has been an eventful week!
Last week I had a surprise opportunity of meeting International Cricket commentator Charu Sharma, in the metro! I can also now boast of having met with an Indian global celebrity from the world of cricket. It was a very hectic day at work and then this incident brought some relief to my headache.
Just a couple of days ago there were these two ladies who gave a very animated display of fast track make up, on board the fast track Dubai metro! They were seated on either end of the compartment and were oblivious of the fact that both were exhibiting the same talent to the same audience. For us passengers it was like as though watching free Maybelline TV - LIVE in the literal sense of the word. I am sure there is no need to explain which gender of the audience was glued to their ‘screens’ during this telecast!
These ladies might have had a badly burnt toast during breakfast, tea or coffee spilled all over the table, husband left the towel on the bed…again, kids late to school, an early meeting OR let’s give Roger something interesting to write!! No matter what the reason, no matter what upsets us, when we need to get on with life inspite of all our disappointments or failures or expectations not met, we make sure that we all put on our make-up; whatever that may be and move on with life. Some of us make an effort to indulge in applying more than one layer of it and some of us have the natural ability to be strong and be natural to make up for the unhappiness we experience. At the end of the day what is important is that we need to make sure that nothing lets us crumble or sulk or sinks us into the abyss of sadness, when every minute of life is a gift from God, to be lived to the fullest! When something goes wrong, let’s face it, learn from it and let’s do something worthwhile and make up for the lost happiness! Let’s do something which leaves a glow in our lives and in others and not just on our faces. Something brighter than the glow of any ‘foundation’ or ‘masakara’!
Cheers!!
