My ‘first kiss’
A friend of a friend would always
say, “Uyi, you will never change.” Hmmm…but it’s true; I still love kisses and
more kisses, and I still love them for FREE, whether the French kiss or dutch
kiss, it all feels yummy you know.
It is interesting to see people
giggle over the memories of their first times; they just love those tender
moments. Like when they said their ‘first word’ as a baby, or made their ‘first
day’ at school, had their ‘first date’, and winked at their ‘first crush’ you
know, the list can be endless. In all these, I came to realize that first
things (starting) are not clear pointers to the genius within (ending),
as the saying goes, “it is not how well you started, but how well you finish”,
but of course there’s a “start”.
However, first
things turn out to be perfect pointers to the genius within, especially in
designs (definitely not in business ideas). You know like the ‘first word’ you
hear when writing a poem, or like the ‘first thought’ that pops in your head
when you see an image/picture, they are like the ‘first kiss’ of your life; they always
CHANGE the game. So, rather than beat about the bush, I simply follow my heart’s
‘first kiss’ and even if I get to do ten other designs, my clients mostly
choose my ‘first design’. I say that with a sharp 99.7% assurance from
experience well over two decades now. Don’t ask me how, because I still don’t know
how it happens.
Well, Jane said it all; “If you follow
your heart, your 'first kiss' would always be a moment to cherish for a lifetime.”
Absolutely love this!!
