watch to watch!

For some strange reason I had given up on wearing a watch on my wrist. I had a good collection of watches (mostly gifted), which I had collected from past few years. To this collection, I added two more sometime in August (a birthday gift and a friendship day gift). Sometime in September when I looked for the new additional watches from the lot, they were not there. I searched a little bit but in vain. I was so mad at myself for loosing a gift. I felt extremely irresponsible and as a punishment I gave up on wearing them for the whole year.
During the same time, I had a tiff with two good friends. I started relating this with the lost watches. I analysed a little bit on why I lost the watches. Not being organised, responsible and diligent to take care of things were the reasons I lost the watches. And what about the friends? Again the same. Not being considerate, patient and gentle were the reasons. I dint want to loose my precious jewels in the form of friends. This disturbed me so much that I finally made my first attempt to reconcile the broken relationship. These two friends of mine, such lovely gentle darlings, they immediately patched up with me. The same evening, while I was looking for something else in cupboard, I saw my lovely watches sitting quietly and looking at me with a familiar smile. I was so happy. I thought I got all that I lost.

Now this year, though I can wear the watches, I’m so used to not wearing them, I’m still continuing with the same habit. However, my collections of watches are growing though. I hope I get into my old habit of not only wearing watches, but matching them with the outfits I wear.
