Overeating

I'm back to my Steak-y philosophy again... Was woken from my nap by one of my girlfriends and well, basically we talked... It was thought fodder...

She's having her steak now but maybe, she has chosen a steak tt's not really sitting well in her tummy... I just realised tt even if u managed to get ur steak and eat it, it might not be the most satisfactory meal too...

Haven't we all gone to restaurants and asked for a steak?? And what happens when u make ur order is tt the waiter or waitress will politely ask u, "How well done do u want it to be ma'am?" (yes, I'm a ma'am when i visit restaurants!!!) Then u get to choose the sauce too (black pepper, mushroom, brown, lemon butter...)!!! Not to mention, do u want a T-Bone, Sirloin, Tenderloin or Rib-Eye??

Sometimes we think tt, since we have " ordered" this steak and we are "paying" for this steak, we shouldn't waste it... Even when u feel tt u have had enough and are "full", we continue "eating" and somehow end up with a bad case of indigestion... Who do we blame for the pain then? We knew we couldn't take anymore but still we pushed ourselves... Haiz...

Learn how to treat ur "tummies" better... Learn when we should stop, even if u feel the pinch at the "waste"... Sometimes it's not ur fault tt the steak is not going down well... It might be tt u did choose the wrong kind of steak, or the chef was in a bad mood tt day, or the restaurant just has a bad reputation... It's the same with love, i guess... Not everything is within ur control... When things fall apart, it isn't always something u can change... U don't barge into the kitchen and tell the chef how to cook ur steak, do u?

Don't worry tt u will be wasting tt steak... As long as u are not afraid of "paying" and "ordering" another steak, u will get to taste it again... As long as u are willing to love again and give urself opportunities, u will find a better man who will treasure u better...

I know what it feels like to give up something with great regret... We think of all the things tt might have been and all the things tt had been... We know tt someday, we will recover from the pain and loss, we will have to be the one to walk out of tt shadow... But so many of us also know tt the first step is the hardest...

For me, I know what I want but apparently, it's not on the restaurant's menu... I'm still waiting for the chef to put it on and I seriously dun care what the price is, but meanwhile, i can only wait... Bleh!! @@
