Clay Relationship

Somehow nowadays I like to recall my old memories about my time while I was still studying at my secondary school at Indonesia. They were fond and memorable memories for me. Miss those times. Hahahhaa but anyway, let’s go back to the main reason, yes, CLAY RELATIONSHIP. for the first time ever, I’m writing about relationship. So fun XD!! Though I’m still single, don’t take me easy. I know a lot too^^! Single doesn’t mean to be lonely right? :D!! (confused with my statement?

Ok, Let me start as usual with my first-hand experience about life. While I was recalling my secondary school memories, I suddenly remember my final year art assignment for the Final exam. I chose to make a dragon teapot set from clay (one of my masterpiece!!^^) . Before I started making the set, I personally did some researches and chose the best clay material for my dragon teapot set. After I molded the clay into the dragon teapot, I used a 1000°C fire beam to dry my teapot as I wantedto speed up the drying process (before the painting part) unnaturally. However it didn’t turn out very well. As I speed up the process, some cracks started to appear which affected the shape severely. Lucky enough for me to realize that “speeding up” process would give bad result, I stopped and let it dry naturally. After the drying process, I painted them and did some final touch up. Guess what, I almost got a perfect score for it!! Feel so proud :p hmm so guys, get what I mean here? :D

Yes, CLAY RELATIONSHIP. A relationship between a woman and a man is like the clay process above. First thing that you need to do before you start a relationship is choosing the best clay that you can found. A man will indeed choose the most beautiful woman that he can ever found. Same otherwise for woman. But when you choose someone that you are going to be attached with, I bet you will realize soon or later that no one is perfect. You will start to find some flaws from them, and you start to dislike those flaws. But don’t worry, you are in the right track! Why? Because he/she is still a clay! You haven’t molded him/her yet! A relationship will only start when you start to realize each other mistakes and “mold” each other into improvement and development.

Now you know each other limitations and flaws, and you start to mend each other flaws. But again, as you have seen my teapot making process, there is no express or instant way that can speed up the process from molding into perfection without making any crack. If you try to speed up the process, or altering the natural process, you will make cracks and your relationship will be broken. Hence, let the clay ‘dry up” naturally. Perfection is built through time. It is a process, which requires perseverance. Many relationships failed in this moment of “drying up the clay”.

That’s all for my insight this time round. For those who are having relationship, I wish you guys all the best, remember don’t speed up the “drying up” process using unnatural process. Let it flow naturally and enjoy the process. And for those who are still single, keep finding your right “clay”, never give up!! :p

So be blessed guys. :)
